A mysterious fog, coupled with reports of health symptoms, has sparked public fears reminiscent of Operation Sea Spray, a Cold War-era U.S. military experiment.
By yourNEWS Media Newsroom
Unusual fog spanning multiple U.S. states has raised concerns, with many drawing comparisons to Operation Sea Spray, a secret U.S. military experiment conducted in 1950. The recent fog has garnered attention due to its chemical-like odor, reports of respiratory symptoms, and visible white particles, causing residents and experts alike to speculate about its origins and implications.

Operation Sea Spray: A Chilling Precedent
In 1950, during the Cold War, the U.S. military initiated Operation Sea Spray, a large-scale biological test in San Francisco. Using Serratia marcescens and Bacillus globigii, military personnel sprayed bacterial clouds over the city to simulate a bioweapon attack. The goal was to assess urban vulnerability to biological warfare. At the time, these bacteria were considered harmless, but the experiment resulted in unintended health consequences, including 11 hospitalizations and the death of Edward J. Nevin, who succumbed to complications from a rare Serratia infection.
The Current Fog: Alarming Similarities
Recent reports of thick fog across states including Florida, Kansas, and California have reignited fears of covert biological testing. Videos circulating online depict white particles swirling within the fog, and many residents have reported adverse health effects.
A Florida woman described, “I kept sneezing over and over for about three hours, and my eyes were really puffy.” Meanwhile, a Kansas resident noted “massive amounts of chemtrails” preceding the fog, and a California resident reported an unusual chemical odor that “burns my nose.” Social media platforms have been inundated with posts speculating about a possible link to biological warfare. One user claimed, “This could be another Operation Sea Spray,” while others suggested it could be connected to the mysterious drone sightings reported in December.
Scientific Explanations and Skepticism
The National Weather Service (NWS) attributes the fog to natural phenomena, such as advection fog, which forms when warm, moist air flows over cooler surfaces, and radiation fog, which develops under clear skies and low wind conditions. These types of fog are common during winter, especially in states like Texas, Minnesota, and Nebraska.
Atmospheric scientist Rudolf Husar, in a NASA Earth Observatory article, explained that fog can trap pollutants such as sulfur and nitrogen oxides, intensifying their odors. “When fog forms, these gases are absorbed by water droplets, amplifying their smell,” Husar noted. However, critics argue that the timing and widespread nature of the fog raise legitimate concerns about its origins.
Historical Legacy and Public Trust
The legacy of Operation Sea Spray, which remained classified until 1976, continues to influence public perceptions. The experiment demonstrated the risks of using urban populations as unwitting subjects in biological tests. The bacteria used in the experiment, believed harmless at the time, were later linked to severe infections and potentially long-term ecological impacts, as detailed by Scientific American.
