fogged in
Mist blocks travel
Fogged in describes a condition where fog is so thick that travel or visibility becomes impossible or severely restricted.
It applies especially to airports, harbors, and coastal areas where fog can strand travelers or prevent vessels from departing: We were fogged in at the airport for six hours.
The phrase can also describe a general state of being trapped by weather conditions, with fog acting as the confining element.
