thick fog

Impenetrable gray blanket

Thick fog is fog so dense that visibility drops dramatically—drivers slow to a crawl, flights get cancelled, and familiar landscapes become disorienting.

The phrase is standard weather terminology: A thick fog rolled in off the coast.

Thick modifies fog more often than any other adjective.
