Wind does not always accompany fog.

Wind doesn't always accompany fog.
There are several different types of fog. (We distinguish between different types of fog because they form in different ways, and they dissolve for different reasons.)
In the case of radiation fog (common in summer mornings, if there have been rain showers the day before) there is usually no wind until the fog dissolves.
In the case of advection fog (for instance, fog "blowing in" over land from a foggy sea), there will definitely be a bit of wind.

During Winter fog is most common. Fog is caused by light winds (less then 5 knots) and cool nights with temperatures dropping close to zero degrees.

I live on an island and we get our fair share of fog. I don't recall it ever being particularly windy when the fog comes in.

Really? I dunno: I've been in lots of fog that was dead-still, wind-wise.
