A Dense Fog Advisory remains in effect across the Delmarva Peninsula this morning, with visibility dropping to just one quarter mile or less in many areas.
The National Weather Service issued the advisory at 1:10 AM and expects conditions to persist until 10:00 AM today. The thick fog is impacting portions of central and southern Delaware, including Kent County, inland Sussex County, and Delaware’s beaches. In Maryland, Caroline County on the Eastern Shore is experiencing reduced visibility, while several counties in southern New Jersey are also affected.
Motorists are urged to exercise extreme caution during the morning commute. The dramatically reduced visibility is creating hazardous driving conditions on highways and local roads throughout the region.
If you must travel this morning, the National Weather Service recommends slowing down, using your headlights, and maintaining extra distance between your vehicle and others on the road. Consider delaying non-essential travel until conditions improve.
The fog is expected to gradually lift as temperatures rise later this morning. Drivers should continue monitoring conditions and allow extra time for their commute. Stay with TV Delmarva for updated weather conditions and traffic reports throughout the morning.
