A Dense Fog Advisory remains in effect across southern Delaware and parts of New Jersey until 10 AM this morning, creating hazardous travel conditions throughout the region.
The National Weather Service reports visibility has dropped to a quarter mile or less in dense fog, significantly impacting morning commutes. Areas affected include inland Sussex County, Delaware beaches, and multiple counties in central and southern New Jersey including Monmouth, Ocean, Atlantic, Burlington, and Cape May counties.
Drivers are experiencing dangerous conditions on major roadways as the thick fog severely limits visibility. The fog is expected to persist through the morning rush hour before gradually lifting.
Motorists should exercise extreme caution and follow these safety guidelines: reduce speed significantly, turn on headlights and use low beams, and maintain extra distance between vehicles. Avoid using high beam headlights, as they can reflect off the fog and reduce visibility further.
The Dense Fog Advisory is scheduled to expire at 10 AM EST as morning temperatures rise and atmospheric conditions improve. Commuters should allow extra travel time and consider delaying non-essential trips until visibility improves.
