where flows from the Atlantic Ocean
move over the vast, rising Piedmont areas
of Georgia and the Carolinas, cooling as
they rise in elevation.
Upslope fog happens when moist air
flows up the windward sides of mountains.
As the air rises it cools to the dew
point and creates fog that can obscure
wide areas of high terrain.
Valley fog is sort of the reverse of upslope
fog. Cold air is dense, and often sinks
down mountainsides and pools above the
rivers and streams that divide mountains
and other high terrain. Moisture above
the streams is cooled, the temperature
and dew point converge, and the result is
a dense fog that follows the rivers' tracks,
and the terrain along its shores. Many airports
in mountainous terrain are situated
along these riverbanks, which many times
are the only areas flat enough to
be suitable.
Frontal and precipitation fog occurs
when warmer air advances over colder
surfaces, as is the case with warm fronts.
Any accompanying precipitation can add
enough moisture to create large bands
of dense fog. After a rainy or snowy
frontal passage, another form of radiation
fog can blanket the area until the cold,
saturated earth wicks it away as clearing
skies and rising temperatures drive the
temperature and dew point values apart.

YOU'VE BEEN HERE BEFORE. OFTEN A
student taking flight training is not new
to the game. They may have started
lessons when they were younger and the
pressures of life, work, and family were
less. Or they earned their certificate only
to let it lapse because of those same life
experiences. Time to fly again? AOPA
offers a fun, interactive online course,
modeled after our popular Rusty Pilots
seminar that gives you all the information
you need to get current again. The
course uses the scenario of a cross-country
flight to help bring you up to speed
on hot-button issues such as medical
reforms, weather briefings, preflight
planning, regulations, and airspace. At
the end of the course, you'll receive FAA
WINGS credit to help you toward completing
your flight review. Plus, we'll help
you find the flight schools in your area
so you can take the next step and quickly
get back to active flying status. Best of all,
Rusty Pilots Online is free for
AOPA members.
This course qualifies for the AOPA
Accident Forgiveness and FAA
WINGS programs.
