A Dense Fog Advisory is in effect for coastal areas of the Delmarva Peninsula tonight through Tuesday morning, with visibility dropping to just one-quarter to one-half mile in some areas.
The National Weather Service issued the advisory at 7:33 PM Sunday, warning residents and travelers of hazardous driving conditions that could persist until 10:00 AM Tuesday. The thick fog is expected to blanket Delaware’s beaches and several New Jersey coastal counties, including Eastern Monmouth, Cape May, Atlantic Coastal Cape May, Coastal Atlantic, and Coastal Ocean areas.
Motorists planning to travel during overnight and early morning hours should exercise extreme caution. The National Weather Service strongly recommends reducing speed, using headlights, and maintaining extra distance between vehicles when visibility becomes limited.
‘Low visibility could make driving conditions hazardous,’ weather officials warned in the advisory.
The fog is expected to gradually lift throughout Tuesday morning, with conditions improving by mid-morning. Commuters should allow extra travel time and consider delaying non-essential trips if possible.
