Coastal California is famous for fog and smog (fog mixed with smoke). Why is the California coast foggy/smoggy, whereas Houston,

Texas, which is at similar latitude, might get occasional smog from too many cars, but fog is relatively rare?
A) Warm air in Texas rises to make clouds and not fog, whereas in California cold water from the ocean mixes with warm water from the land to generate fog.
B) The ocean is warm off the Texas coast, but a cold current running offshore California generates fog when the cold, moist air is drawn ashore by a sea breeze.
C) Cold currents along the Texas coast inhibit fog, whereas the ocean is warm off California.
D) There isn't really any fog; it is all just smog from too many

Answer:

Coastal California is famous for fog and smog (fog mixed with smoke). The reason due to which the California coast is foggy/smoggy, whereas Houston, Texas, which is at similar latitude, might get occasional smog from too many cars, but fog is relatively rare:

B) The ocean is warm off the Texas coast, but a cold current running offshore California generates fog when the cold, moist air is drawn ashore by a sea breeze.

Explanation:

  • The option A is not correct as the statement that says that in California cold water from the ocean mixes with warm water from the land to generate fog is not correct.
  • The option B is correct as when the cold and moist air is drawn by sea breeze then a cold current running offshore generates fog.
  • The option C is not correct as cold currents doesn't occur along Texas coast and don't create fog.
  • The option D is not correct as the statement which says that there is not really any fog; it is all just smog from too many.
