Now I'm a believer!

A few years ago I went to Columbus Georgia and my flight home was delayed because of "Frozen fog". Wouldn't that be like... trying to walk through a Slushie? I didn't buy it, it wasn't even that cold out. They maintained that "It brings down airplanes! It makes the planes so heavy with ice they can't fly!"
Yeah, whatever. I think they can come up with a better term... like... high altitude icing.
Anyway, that's not what this is about. What this is about is... here in Colorado we had a sudden drop in temperature from being I think... in the 40s to now low 20s and we have a thick, soupy, COOL fog. And much like what happens in places like Minnesota it's freezing on everything, even the street outside the house here has a thin layer of ice, the cars a thicker layer. It's really cool! Spooky... like Silent Hill or Alan Wake... makes me wanna get a lead pipe and go around whacking anything that moves while listening to static on a radio!
Also coined a new phrase at work today. A co-worker said "I like to laugh at work, keep it up beat and positive, you know?"
Without missing a beat "You can keep it positive all you want. I'd rather keep it REAL!"
And we all laughed out asses off!

Like ghosts don't scare me, frozen fog will never scare me.

Sounds like the ice fog up we'd get when I lived in Alaska. Stuff is so thick and heavy you can just see the glow of your headlamps standing 8ft back.
