A Dense Fog Advisory is now in effect for the entire Delmarva Peninsula, with visibility dropping to just one-quarter to one-half mile starting at 10 PM tonight through 10 AM Wednesday morning.
The National Weather Service issued the advisory at 1:15 PM today, warning that hazardous driving conditions are expected across Delaware, the Eastern Shore of Maryland, and southeastern Virginia. The thick fog will also impact parts of New Jersey and southeastern Pennsylvania.
Locally, all Delaware counties are included in the advisory, along with Kent, Queen Anne’s, Talbot, Caroline, and Sussex counties on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. The fog is expected to be most dense during the overnight and early morning hours.
“Low visibility could make driving conditions hazardous,” meteorologists warned. Drivers are urged to slow down, use headlights, and maintain extra distance between vehicles when traveling through foggy areas.
The advisory remains in effect until 10 AM Wednesday, though conditions may improve gradually as morning temperatures rise. Commuters should plan for extra travel time and consider delaying non-essential trips during the peak fog hours.
