Well, it's especially bad during the summertime, I guess. High, stable barometric pressure would also add to it, since stable pressure means calm weather, and calm weather meanspollution gets trapped in one area for a long time with no wind to carry it elsewhere. High heat contributes to this as well. However, even with all of these conditions, the breathing conditions would be their worst in the early mornings. Over night, as the air cools off, heavy elements comprising the smog fall to the ground and can collect in fog or dew. As the day goes on and temperatures rise, so does the smog. So my (educated) guess is early morning. Especially since right now, it's nearly 8am and the air outside smells like crap and leaves a bad taste in my mouth. It's been a week-long heat wave where I live, and the smog has built up so much that you can't see the two major mountains in the area (normally quite visible).

Does nuclear fission produce smog into the air?

Nuclear fission does not produce smog. Nevertheless, the use of nuclear power does not have a zero carbon footprint, and there is unquestionably smog associated with it. In the United States, nearly all enrichment of uranium is done at a facility that is powered by a coal burning power plant said to be the worst polluting coal plant in the country. This, of course, produces smog. The mining, refining, and transportation of uranium are all done with equipment typically dependent on petroleum products, and this produces smog. Building a power plant and decommissioning a power also depend on petroleum for fuel, and so there is smog associated with this. And since we have no idea how to deal with the waste nuclear fuel, we cannot even comment on smog associated with it. But the actual nuclear fission does not produce any smog at all.
