DECODING:

16/15 = temperature 16°C / dew point 15°C.

The dew point is the second number after the slash = 15°C.

Important Note: The temperature/dew point spread is only 1°C (16/15), which explains the fog at vicinity. When temperature and dew point are very close together, the air is near saturation and fog or mist formation is likely. This is also consistent with the 1000 m visibility reported.
