Locally affected areas include Cumberland, Salem, Gloucester, Camden, and Atlantic counties in New Jersey, along with Philadelphia and surrounding Pennsylvania counties including Delaware, Chester, Montgomery, and Bucks. The dense fog is creating extremely dangerous driving conditions during the morning commute. Officials are urging motorists to exercise extreme caution if they must travel. If you must drive this morning, the National Weather Service recommends slowing down significantly, using your headlights, and leaving plenty of distance between your vehicle and the car ahead of you.
