In Act 1 Scene 3 Line 38, Macbeth said, 'So foul and fair a day I have not seen'. He referred to the battles in which he and his best friend and fellow Captain Banquo had fought. The foulness referred to the bloody ugliness of the fighting. The fairness referred to the victory of the forces of their sovereign, King Duncan I [d. August 14, 1040], over invading Norwegians and treacherous Scotsmen.It's basically a paradox, a paradox is a contradiction in terms. Fair and foul a day is saying that its a good day, but a bad day. So like, its wet and windy, but also warm a sunny. And saying he has not seen it is saying that he hasn't seen anything like this.
A paradox is an event or image that appears to be in contradiction to the laws of physics; in other words, the writer is describing something that is physically impossible in order to make a point or highlight a particular situation. Water flowing uphill is a common paradox. In Robert Burn's poem, "My Love Is Like a Red, Red Rose," he uses paradox to describe his loyalty, stating that he will love his sweetheart until "all the seas run dry and rocks melt with the sun." Since neither of these events are possible, he is implying that his love is neverending.

The expression suggests the themes of paradox, and of things not being what they appear to be.
it is a metaphore saying that everything that is foul (bad) was meant to be taht way. and everything that is fair is meant to be decieving and foul
Paradox creates a humorous effect.
