Drivers across the Delmarva Peninsula should prepare for hazardous travel conditions as dense fog is expected to blanket the region overnight into Tuesday morning.
The National Weather Service has issued a Dense Fog Advisory effective from midnight tonight through 10:00 AM Tuesday for several areas, including Kent and inland Sussex counties in Delaware, Talbot County in Maryland, and parts of southern New Jersey.
Visibility could drop to just one quarter mile or less in the densest areas, creating dangerous driving conditions during the Tuesday morning commute. The fog is expected to be most problematic between midnight and mid-morning Tuesday.
Motorists are urged to exercise extreme caution if travel is necessary. The National Weather Service recommends slowing down, using headlights, and maintaining extra distance between vehicles. Consider delaying non-essential travel until conditions improve.
The Dense Fog Advisory is scheduled to expire at 10:00 AM Tuesday morning as warming temperatures and changing atmospheric conditions help lift the fog.
