In a fog

For once the Weather Channel got it right: this morning it displayed a little orange icon on my smartphone, which indicates that something's up, in this case what it called "patchy fog."
They weren't kidding. I was out in my car at about 7:30 a.m. (heading to a friend's house to shower) and it was spooky. I had noticed a cloud of fog hovering over the cornfields on my walk the previous evening, but this morning I was completely hemmed in by the white stuff and couldn't see beyond the fence lines on either side of my road. At one point three riders just materialized out of the fog.
By mid-morning it was gone completely, replaced by bright sunshine, but what a Gothic start to the day!
