الشرح المختصر :
"Dabāb" (fog) is an accumulated water vapor. It swiftly spreads in the lower layers of the atmosphere. It increases in cold mornings and reduces visibility. It is generated when warm air passes through a cold area. Fog is common in coastal cities, i.e the cities which are close to the sea.
التعريف اللغوي المختصر :
"Dabāb": fog; smoke-like clouds that cover the earth mostly on cold mornings in some areas. Derived from "idbāb", which means concealing/covering or gathering/collecting. Fog is called "dabāb" because it collects/accumulates, or because it conceals things.
