Fog is the same as clouds except that it touches the ground, whereas clouds have their base above the ground. When wind blows clouds over a mountain, fog is present wherever the clouds touch the ground. To a meteorologist, fog is present when visibility is less than 300 meters. Fog is composed of tiny liquid water droplets from less than a milimeter in diameter.
