Can microwaves be blocked by clouds and fog making them unsuitable for sending information?

Microwaves can be affected by clouds and fog, but they are generally less impacted than other forms of electromagnetic radiation, like visible light. While dense clouds and heavy fog can attenuate microwave signals, especially at higher frequencies, they do not completely block them. This means that while performance may be reduced, microwaves can still be used for communication under such weather conditions, making them suitable, though potentially less effective, for sending information.
