Details

Light winds and humid conditions have resulted in river valley fog
over much of the area. The fog could be locally dense at times
with visibilities down to a quarter mile, especially in the river
valleys and other low-lying areas. Expect conditions to quickly
improve by 9 AM and afterwards.

Motorists should exercise caution as visibilities may change
suddenly over short distances. Use low-beam headlights and leave
plenty of distance between you and the vehicle ahead.
