Yes. I appreciate this type of description where a character is interacting with the environment and providing sensory details. Ex. The clammy, encroaching fog dimmed her awareness like a sinister blanket of nothingness. As opposed to: The fog was thick and obscured much of the gaslit streets.

I think the latter only works when it's really evocative. I'd have to look up the exact wording, but one example I remember is Patrick Rothfuss describing a thousand razor-sharp leaves swirling in the wind as a ~10 year old was playing a game trying to dodge through them to touch the tree trunk.
