Good news for morning commuters across the Delmarva Peninsula – the National Weather Service has cancelled the Dense Fog Advisory that was affecting the region early Wednesday morning.
The advisory, which was lifted at 5:15 AM, had been impacting visibility across several areas including Delaware’s beaches and inland Sussex County, as well as parts of southern New Jersey including Atlantic, Ocean, Cape May, and Monmouth counties.
Dense fog can create dangerous driving conditions by reducing visibility to less than a quarter mile, making it difficult for drivers to see other vehicles, traffic signals, and road hazards. When fog does develop in our area, remember to use low-beam headlights, reduce your speed, and increase following distance.
The cancellation means conditions have improved significantly across the affected areas, and normal visibility has returned to most locations. However, drivers should remain alert as patchy fog can still develop quickly, especially near waterways and low-lying areas common throughout the Delmarva Peninsula.
