Fog consists of material particles (dust or smoke) on which vapour has condensed; if these particles can be removed the air will be clear.
When air is warmed and ascends it carries the dust particles with it, and these particles striking against any cold surface with which they come into contact stick to it.
That all air is full of dust is seen when a stream of sunlight crosses a room; the particles of dust are then clearly perceived moving rapidly in all directions in the air.
