Fog is defined as a cloud which reduces visibility to less than .6 miles, where as mist is that which reduces visibility to less than 1.2 miles. The same cloud that is not fog on lower ground may be fog where it contacts higher ground such as hilltops or mountain ridges.

Seems to me it's working as intended. :)

As I said earlier, I think the clouds and fog are working as intended. :)

If you've ever flown through thick fog or a cloud, visibility is usually very close to if not at zero.

As a matter of fact, just the other day I was landing at one of the A30's bases on Baltic. It was an adventure in instrument landing and a challenge I rather enjoyed because of the fog/clouds.

I moved this over to the technical forum 'cause this seems to be happening only to you.  Can you get a screen shot of the fog?   It would also help to get your in-game graphic setting and your system specs.

This is the side view which I thought Raptor was describing since it does appear somewhat square/rectangular...

Oh, okay. Sorry, haven't been flying in a while so I thought we just got a fog update or something.

If they are gray or white like in my screenshots then it's not a bug or a problem with your system.

If they are black or any other color then there is a problem with your video.
