Fogging in bad weather

I have a new fogger but have been waiting for the "perfect" time to fog. Now our weather has turned nasty (spring snow storm lasting for a few days more). I am getting very anxious about fogging but am reluctant to disturb the bees with this bad weather (snow, sleet, rain - about -3 - + 3 degrees celcius).
I placed the cords over 2 weeks ago now but still no fogging.
Any comments on should I wait or do it now or ??? I have not seen mites but have only done one sugar roll test on 1 of 30 hives.

I respectfully disagree with your analisys. I have been following the commentaries over a long time and do not recall anything about flying or no flying relative to temperature or other weather conditions . Of course I could be wrong .
Meantime I have not considered temperature nor anything else preventing the application to fog .And nothing remarcable happened with adverse results .
Happy fogging
