If it's related to some sparse incidents it may be that as soon you take off the weather engine locks on a station for which there is no fog and this is simply canceled (happens even with ActiveSky, though less often than with the default barebone weather engine). If it happens all too often it may be you lack some [unknown to me] texture.
Even if you lack a texture and you manage to bring it back, the fog layering under FS is pretty poor and in the default installations (texture or whatever effect it was I strove to delete, back in the days, because being without its eyesore presence is much better, I believe) looks like a sort of surface of a milky color that encircle and clings unrealistically to any hilly or mountainous surface. The visual effect is pretty much like the lands below you is awash with an off-white semi-transparent colored mercury that is unable to mesh with the orography and remains painfully separated from this by a sharp interface line, just like in the linked Youtube video around min 3:27.
Of course, if you want it back, I wish you luck in your pursuit... it's been YEARS ever since I managed to delete it and cannot remember what it was.

There is no such a thing as overkill. Only unworthy targets.
