Description
Just south of Jackson, Wyoming, early morning advection fog burns off over the Snake River. Advection Fog forms when very warm, moist and stable air blows across a cooler surface. The air temperature falls until the dew point is reached and condensation occurs. As the atmosphere again heats up later in the morning, the fog burns off the area is clear again.
The Snake River is a major river of the greater Pacific Northwest in the United States. At 1,078 miles long, it is the largest tributary of the Columbia River, the largest North American river that empties into the Pacific Ocean. Rising in western Wyoming, the river flows through the Snake River Plain of southern Idaho then through the rugged Hells Canyon area via northeastern Oregon and the rolling Palouse Hills to reach its mouth near the Washington Tri-Cities area, where it continues as part of the Columbia. Its drainage basin encompasses parts of six U.S. states, and its average discharge is over 54,000 cubic feet per second.
