While burning with snow on the ground or after a rain event may be safer from a fire safety perspective, it has to be balanced with the concern that materials may be damp and burn inefficiently and could smoulder excessively, creating a potential for nuisance smoke. The presence of fog is also an indicator of poor venting conditions, and burning under these conditions may lead to nuisance smoke. 1, record 1, English, - nuisance%20smoke
