This page talks about how Cape Disappointment, in the extreme southwestern corner of Washington at the mouth of the Columbia River is one of the foggiest places in the United States with roughly 2,552 hours of fog a year. But here? The amount of fog is insufficient right now!
Maybe I’ll get what I wanted and find out that for the next eight months Seattle will be shrouded in a dense low-lying stratus and everyone will be like, “you should have been careful of what you wished for, Sofi,” but I’d be like, “I’m not complaining!”
As much as I love stunning views of Mount Rainier on a clear day in the Puget Sound (although the other day we were shrouded in mist—a fairly common occurrence, actually—but this time it was thin enough for Mount Rainier to be visible and it never looked more majestic and ominous), I want the “gloom” to happen already! I want to be decked out in flannel and sweaters and hoodies and trenchcoats and peacoats, feeling like I’m in a moody future-noir film.

I get it—it’s über-beautiful here in the summer when it’s so dry that the grass begins to turn yellow. But I moved here knowing it’s supposed to rain almost every single day and I want that, dammit! #cuddleweather
I think your fog just travelled to Europe then. 
It might just be a coincidence, but this morning there was a huge amount of fog. I almost felt like I was in Superman 64. It was also very humid so I brought my umbrella. It's been a while since the last time some heavy fog came in.
And now?
Now the fog is gone. It may be in Asia. 
It didn't rain at all, which is interesting considering it pratically rained non-stop these days, so I brought my umbrella for nothing.
