A Dense Fog Advisory remains in effect for portions of the Delmarva Peninsula and surrounding areas until 9:00 AM this morning, creating potentially dangerous driving conditions with visibility dropping to just one quarter mile or less.
The National Weather Service issued the advisory at 6:20 AM, affecting New Castle County in Delaware, along with parts of southeastern Pennsylvania including Philadelphia and Chester, Montgomery, and Bucks counties. Several New Jersey counties are also impacted, including Salem, Gloucester, Camden, and parts of Burlington County.
Motorists are experiencing significantly reduced visibility across the region, making morning commutes particularly hazardous. The dense fog is expected to gradually lift as temperatures warm throughout the morning hours.
Drivers are urged to exercise extreme caution and follow these safety guidelines: reduce speed, turn on headlights, and maintain extra distance between vehicles. Avoid using high beams, as they can reflect off the fog and further reduce visibility.
The advisory is set to expire at 9:00 AM EDT as conditions are expected to improve. However, drivers should remain alert for patchy fog that may linger in some low-lying areas even after the advisory ends.
