morning haze
Early atmospheric blur
Morning haze is a thin veil of mist or fog that hangs in the air during early daylight hours, typically burning off as the sun rises and temperatures warm.
It softens landscapes and diffuses light: The hills emerged through the morning haze.
The phrase can suggest dreamy indistinctness or the mental fog of waking: I was still in a morning haze when I left for work.
