Err... I think that's the wrong way around:

Advection Fog. Forms when quite warm, moist and stable air is blown across a cooler surface (land or water). The air temperature falls until the dew point is reached and condensation occurs.

Typically occurs in the UK with a relatively warm SW airflow (nice long sea track to pick up moisture in the lower layers).
