I've been racking my brain for days trying to figure out what that square with the 3 horizontal lines represents. All the other icons are self explanatory. Anyone put me out of my misery?

Just scroll down to 'Weather types' and it tells you.

No, but with respect a five year old could work it out by a process of elimination.

Perhaps an 'eye' with an 'X' superimposed, would have been a more intuitive bad visibility / fog warning.
