...Locally Dense Fog Possible This Morning...

Patchy to areas of fog have developed across portions of the area
this morning, especially within and near sheltered river valleys.
In some locations, the fog will become locally dense and reduce
visibility to one-quarter mile or less at times. Locations with
fog will see conditions gradually improve an hour or two after
sunrise. Slow down, use low beam headlights, and allow for extra
distance between yourself and other motorists if encountering fog
during the morning commute.
