Why does Watertown get fog?
Watertown is near a lake. Fog here usually forms when mild, moist air moves over cooler water, or when very cold air moves over water that is still warm and the water steams. In the last two years of airport weather reports here, fog (visibility of a mile or less) was reported in about 2.5% of hours. It showed up most often in January, and most often between 3 and 6 AM local time.
How far ahead can I trust a fog forecast for Watertown?
Fog is hard to forecast. The first several hours are the most reliable. Further out the forecast leans on how often fog happens at Watertown at that time of year, so read the second and third day as a chance, not a prediction. The chance combines several weather models with the place's own fog history and is updated every hour.
