Mister Fog

Bad and all that the forecast doesn't always predict,
and that snow has often been and passed before Met Éireann alludes to it.
Bad and all when they say it'll be raining cats and dogs,
what bugs me is when they say there'll be patches of Mister Fog!

That's how it sounds to me, and my child asked yesterday,
why Mister Fog was a he and had Mister Sun gone away!
So, here's my point, forecasters, I hope you get the gist:
With your Meteorology degrees and masters why can't you say "fog or mist"?

(Explanation: Since I was a child I have heard the weather forecasters' "mist or fog" as Mister Fog and, yesterday, that's how my nearly 5-year-old heard it too so we can't be the only ones!)
