...AREAS OF DENSE FOG ACROSS INLAND PORTIONS OF THE AREA THIS
MORNING...
Recent observations and traffic cameras show fog developing over
inland portions of Virginia. Currently, the lowest visibilities
are from I-95 and points to the west. Fog is expected to expand
further and become more widespread closer to sunrise with
visibilities between a quarter and one half mile. Visibilities
could drop below a quarter mile at times.
Motorists should be alert for sudden changes in visibility due to
the areas of dense fog. Drive at reduced speeds...watch for
children at school bus stops...and use low beam headlights only.
