unslope fog
A tropical air mass typically causes hot and humid weather. This air mass forms over warm tropical regions and carries high levels of heat and moisture, leading to sultry and sticky conditions when it moves into an area.
Warm, humid
Yes, humid air is denser than dry air because water vapor molecules have a higher mass than nitrogen and oxygen molecules found in air. This can make it seem like the air is thicker when it is more humid.
You can determine if the air is dry or humid by using a hygrometer, which measures the humidity level in the air. A low humidity level indicates dry air, while a high humidity level indicates humid air. Additionally, you can also observe physical signs such as dry skin and static electricity in dry air, and a sticky feeling and foggy windows in humid air.
Water vapor, which is the gaseous form of water. This moisture in the air makes it feel damp and sticky. Additionally, humid air can also contain other particles such as dust, pollutants, and microscopic organisms.
winter
This type of fog is called orographic fog. It forms when moist air is lifted upslope by the terrain of the mountains. As the air rises, it cools and reaches its dew point, leading to the formation of fog.

It produces lift which if in a moist enough airmass will produce thunderstorms
The cold air.
A tropical air mass typically causes hot and humid weather. This air mass forms over warm tropical regions and carries high levels of heat and moisture, leading to sultry and sticky conditions when it moves into an area.
In California, most precipitation falls on the western sides of mountains. As wet air blows in from the Pacific Ocean, its pushed up the mountains. The air cools as it is pushed up. Clouds form, and rain or snow falls.
The Pacific Ranges block any most air from the Pacific, and force the humidity to fall as rain. Storms form over the Great Plains when cool air from the north meets with warm, humid air from the Gulf of Mexico. However, the Rocky Mountains block any humid air from the Gulf, so it can't reach the basins and plateaus.
