As the old folklore goes, For Every Fog in August, A Snowfall during Winter.

There was a good bit of fog here this morning.  ::snow::

Yep.. was foggy here too.

It seemed to work last year. No August rain...No fog...No winter snow (til late TN "snowstorm")

I actually I recall one here in Williamson county. Was a dense one too.

You just had to kill the mood, didn't ya?  :P

Sorry, I'll elaborate:  It was foggy quite a bit last year around these parts, but we didn't see that much snow.  Might not have killed the mood for anyone but me, but still.
