Where Does Fog Come From? Weather for Kids

The video explains fog, its formation, and its similarities to clouds. Fog is made of tiny water droplets, like clouds, but forms near the ground. It often appears after rain when the air cools quickly. The video also discusses different types of fog, such as radiation fog, which forms overnight and disappears with morning sunlight. When fog evaporates, the water turns back into vapor, becoming invisible. The video encourages observing fog and understanding its impact on visibility and weather conditions.
