The Bay of Fundy

• Areas: Digby, Annapolis Royal, Wolfville.
• Nature: Fundy fog is often a "tide cycle" fog. The churning cold water creates dense banks that can linger for days if there is no wind to clear it.

Nova Scotia , fog is a frequent coastal occurrence driven by the meeting of warm air and cold ocean currents, particularly in the spring and summer Areas: Digby, Annapolis Royal, Wolfville

: Provides specific fog warnings and patches for coastal waters, which are the primary source of fog moving inland. Nova Scotia 511

The primary cause of fog in Nova Scotia is the meeting of two massive oceanic forces: the warm Gulf Stream from the south and the cold Labrador Current from the north. When warm, moist air passes over the cold Atlantic waters, it cools rapidly, causing the moisture to condense into advection fog. High-Risk Fog Zones on the Map

• Automated ingestion of METAR/marine visibility reports.
• Real-time satellite low-cloud/fog detection (geostationary and polar-orbiting).
• High-resolution regional modeling (WRF) with hourly outputs and data assimilation.
• Public-facing fog maps with confidence intervals and lead-time estimates.

Nova Scotia’s unique position at the edge of the continental shelf makes it one of the foggiest places on Earth. This is primarily due to advection fog, which occurs when warm, moist air from the Gulf Stream travels over the much colder waters of the Labrador Current.
