Air can go from dry to about 4% to 5% water vapor (depending
on temperature, pressure). Air mixed with water vapor is less
dense (mass per unit volume) than dry air (even if at the same
pressure if I remember correctly).

This means that foggy air is is less "viscous" than dry air.
Lift and drag will remain about the same, but air speed will
increase.
