Mild panic as weather girl warned of danger of "radiation fog" tomorrow morning.

Turned out it didn't mean a deadly radioactive cloud.

But as Dave Barry would say...

"Radiation Fog" would be a great name for a band.

And what is the correct meaning then?

"Fog produced over land when radiational cooling reduces the air temperature to or below its dew point. It is also known as 'ground fog' and 'valley fog'."

Google knows all.

Aw thanks. Sometimes it's fun other people use google to enlighten my lazy mind. ;-)

Now I'm wondering we have a specific word for it in Dutch... We probably just say "nevel en mist".
