Special Weather Statement
Statement as of 4:27 am CST on November 22, 2009/

... Patchy dense fog this morning...

A moist southerly flow of air combined with nighttime cooling has
resulted in areas of fog across much of central Upper Michigan
this morning. This fog has become locally dense... restricting
visibility to one quarter mile or less in some places. The
thickest fog is most prevalent in low lying areas... especially
near inland bodies of water or wetlands. Expect this patchy dense
fog to linger through sunrise before burning off by mid morning.

The fog may also result in the wetting of some roads and
sidewalks. Where temperatures have fallen below freezing in areas
between Marquette and Iron Mountain... there may be a thin layer
of black ice. State Police report M-35 in Marquette County is
particularly slippery in spots near County Road 492.

If you must drive early this morning... be prepared for patches of
dense fog with near zero visibility. Slow down and leave plenty of
distance between you and the vehicle ahead of you. Use your low
beam headlights.
