Description:

The correct answer is:

✅ When heat radiates from the ground on clear nights.

Why?

Radiation fog forms under specific conditions:

Clear Skies: Allows ground heat to escape rapidly into space (radiational cooling).

Calm Winds: Prevents mixing of air layers, letting the surface cool faster.

Moist Air Near Ground: Cools to its dew point, condensing into fog.

Classic Scenario:

Occurs overnight or early morning in valleys or low-lying areas.

Dissipates after sunrise as the ground warms.

Why Not the Others?

Warm air over cold air: Creates advection fog (e.g., coastal fog).

Moist air over mountains: Forms upslope fog.

Fun Fact: London’s infamous "pea soup fog" was often radiation fog mixed with pollution! 🌫️🇬🇧

Farmers hate it—it can frost crops! 🌾❄️
