I'm not a developer but remember that the AI vision ranges are supposed to mimic real life visibility ranges depending on weather conditions. You however, are looking at a computer monitor. Puffs of smoke and mast tops may be visible in real life but not on a monitor.
Your complaint about weather descriptions are valid, however, the enviro mods have pushed the game beyond original concepts and there may only be a few descriptions available. Fair may have to cover a wide range and actual visits to the bridge are needed.
It would be nice if we could get icon warnings about the weather. Fog, and Rain in particular.
