Is it possible to cast spells in solid fog?
Spell description says it functions like fog cloud and fog cloud does not hinder spellcasting. Am I right?

Solid Fog
Conjuration (Creation)
Level: Sor/Wiz 4
Components: V, S, M
Duration: 1 min./level
Spell Resistance: No
This spell functions like fog cloud, but in addition to obscuring sight, the solid fog is so thick that any creature attempting to move through it progresses at a speed of 5 feet, regardless of its normal speed, and it takes a –2 penalty on all melee attack and melee damage rolls. The vapors prevent effective ranged weapon attacks (except for magic rays and the like). A creature or object that falls into solid fog is slowed, so that each 10 feet of vapor that it passes through reduces falling damage by 1d6. A creature can’t take a 5-foot step while in solid fog.
However, unlike normal fog, only a severe wind (31+ mph) disperses these vapors, and it does so in 1 round.
Solid fog can be made permanent with a permanency spell. A permanent solid fog dispersed by wind reforms in 10 minutes.
Material Component: A pinch of dried, powdered peas combined with powdered animal hoof.

Yeah, magic works, because how else are the magic rays mentioned getting shot? And it says nothing about spell failure.

You can cast whatever you want.
You may have a hard time hitting your target if there is such a requirement.
