Question

Why is fog not considered as precipitation?

Answer

Fog is not considered as precipitation because it does not fall to the ground like rain, snow, sleet, or hail. Precipitation is defined as any form of water that falls from the atmosphere and reaches the ground. Fog is a type of cloud that forms when the air is cooled to its dew point, causing water vapor to condense into tiny droplets. While these droplets may reduce visibility and can settle on surfaces, they do not fall to the ground as precipitation.
