A Dense Fog Advisory is in effect for the Delaware coast and southern New Jersey beginning at 6 PM tonight through 10 AM Thursday morning, according to the National Weather Service in Mount Holly.
Visibility will drop to less than one mile in dense fog across inland Sussex County, Delaware beaches, and several New Jersey counties including Monmouth, Ocean, Atlantic, and Cape May areas. The advisory covers both coastal and inland regions of our viewing area.
The thick fog will create hazardous driving conditions during the evening commute tonight and Thursday morning’s rush hour. Motorists should expect significantly reduced visibility that could make travel dangerous on highways and local roads.
If you must drive during the advisory period, the National Weather Service strongly recommends slowing down, using your headlights, and leaving extra distance between your vehicle and others on the road. Allow additional travel time and consider delaying non-essential trips until visibility improves.
The fog is expected to gradually lift Thursday morning, with the advisory expiring at 10 AM. Stay with TV Delmarva for continued weather updates and check road conditions before heading out during this weather event.
