Fog has nothing to do with the time of the year, and is possible all year long.

If you ever hear the weather radio, telling you that it is a certain temperature, and the "dew point" is a lower temperature. The "Dew Point" they refer to, is the temperature at which the air will have fog start to form.

The thing that does that, is the fact that cold air has less ability to hold moisture than warm air. If the air cools, the same amount of moisture, will become a higher percentage of the maximum amount the air can hold. If the air gets cooler, down to the "Dew Point" then the humidity level will get near 100%, and tiny droplets of water will start to form. These drops are so small, they can be suspended in the air, and not fall as rain. This is what we see as fog.

The lowlands get fog more often, because the ground and vegetation may give off more moisture, adding to the humidity level. There are many factors that can effect the conditions that cause fog, but most often it is the warm moist air being cooled to the point it can't hold the moisture any longer.
