Drivers across the Delmarva Peninsula should prepare for hazardous travel conditions as a Dense Fog Advisory takes effect at midnight tonight and continues through 10 AM Tuesday morning.
The National Weather Service in Mount Holly has issued the advisory for several areas in our region, including Kent and Inland Sussex Counties in Delaware, Talbot County in Maryland, and parts of southern New Jersey including Western Monmouth, Atlantic, Cumberland, Ocean, and Southeastern Burlington Counties.
Visibility could drop to just one quarter mile or less in the dense fog, creating dangerous driving conditions during the overnight hours and Tuesday morning commute.
“Low visibility could make driving conditions hazardous,” warns the National Weather Service.
If you must travel during the advisory period, meteorologists strongly recommend slowing down, using your headlights, and leaving plenty of distance between your vehicle and others on the road.
Commuters should plan for extra travel time Tuesday morning as the fog is expected to linger until around 10 AM. The advisory will remain in effect until the fog lifts and visibility improves.
Stay with TV Delmarva for continuing weather updates and check road conditions before heading out tomorrow morning.
