bora fog

A dense "fog" caused when the bora lifts a spray of small drops from the surface of the sea.

It is well developed on the coast of Norway when a bora-like fall wind descends from the Scandinavian mountains as a sudden storm from the east.

A fall wind with a source so cold that, when the air reaches the lowlands or coast, the dynamic warming is insufficient to raise the air temperature to the normal level for the region; hence it appears as a cold wind.
