Amusing Terminology

Good Morning.
According to the weather guessers we have that Fog/Mist thing going on again.
Along with that they say we have 24° of chilly air, 100% humidity, calm winds and a Winter Weather Advisory from now until 12 pm Tuesday. OH! There's more! I love this next one! Apparently, in the forecast for overnight tonight, we have a "Chance Freezing Drizzle."
Freezing Drizzle!
I love that!
Drizzle is such a great word.
On a serious note, as amusing as I might find the terminology, ice storms can be quite destructive. Beautiful. But destructive.
Hang on... that was the forecast for last night. We are still getting last nights forecast this morning. An update is due right now as the clock just turned to 5:53 am. But I gotta wait for 10 minutes or so for the update to be posted. So, I'm waiting. In the meantime I can go check out the weather situation and ask Camera and/or Phone to illustrate said situation.
...
Chilly out there. 
The current weather conditions for this hour, exactly the same as last hour. Except now we have forecast for the day, Rain/Freezing Rain likely then Rain and Patchy Fog.
Got it.
I couldn't see the mist but I could feel it. Camera, with the aid of it's trusty flash, actually could see the mist.
Have a good day, Travelers!
I gotta go right now!
