So as I’m sure you notice when it’s muggy out, the air around you can hold water in it. This is called water vapor. Warm air can hold more water vapor. So when warm air meets the cold ground it will cool slightly and have to get rid of some of that water vapor by condensing it into visible drops that will stick to things close to the ground.
