Charles Ellicott Commentary Hosea 13:3

"Therefore they shall be as the morning cloud, and as the dew that passeth early away, as the chaff that is driven with the whirlwind out of the threshing-floor, and as the smoke out of the chimney." — Hosea 13:3 (ASV)

Early dew ...—Better, dew that early passes away, like chaff that flies in a whirlwind from the threshing-floor, and like smoke from the window (i.e., the lattice beneath the roof through which it vanished).
