A Dense Fog Advisory remains in effect across much of the Delmarva Peninsula and surrounding areas until 7:00 AM this morning, creating hazardous driving conditions with visibility dropping to less than one mile.
The National Weather Service issued the advisory early Saturday morning, warning drivers of dangerous conditions across northern Delaware, including New Castle County, as well as portions of central and southern New Jersey and southeastern Pennsylvania.
Locally affected areas include Philadelphia, Camden, Gloucester, Salem, Cumberland, Atlantic, Cape May, and Ocean counties in New Jersey, along with Delaware, Chester, Montgomery, and Bucks counties in Pennsylvania.
Motorists are urged to exercise extreme caution during the morning commute. The National Weather Service recommends slowing down, using headlights, and maintaining extra distance between vehicles. Even familiar routes can become treacherous when visibility is severely reduced.
The dense fog is expected to gradually lift as temperatures rise throughout the morning, with conditions improving after sunrise. However, drivers should remain vigilant as fog can be patchy and visibility may change rapidly.
