The Times of India talks about fog in movies and literature:
Literature too has its share of fog. But there's more to it than a mere sheet of white. The haze in Charles Dickens' Bleak House, is a metaphor for legal obfuscation. And in Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness, it is incoherence and incomprehension. Emily Bronte offers a poetic image of the fog in Wuthering Heights. She calls it, "a silvery vapour.'' (Shreya Roy Chowdhury)
We don't know if there will be fog tonight at Top Withens, but
The Times recommends a late travel deal nearby:
A detached cottage for a couple - and up to two dogs - in moorland above Stanbury, near Haworth, West Yorkshire, is on offer for a week from January 3, 10 and 17 with Yorkshire Cottages. It costs £192 a week and is on a path leading to Top Withens, reputedly the setting for Wuthering Heights. 01228 406701 (Tony Dawe)
