...PATCHY DENSE FOG EARLY THIS MORNING...
Areas of fog, dense at times especially across Menominee and Delta
counties, have formed across the eastern half of the UP. This may
lead to rapid drops in visibility and hazardous travel for the
morning commute.
Slow down and use low beams when encountering fog, and allow for
extra time to reach your destination. The fog will quickly lift in
the hours following sunrise.
