... Dense fog advisory in effect until 9 am CST this morning...
The National Weather Service in Fort Worth has issued a dense fog advisory... which is in effect until 9 am CST this morning.
Areas of fog have developed across North Texas during the early morning hours. Visibilities are expected to continue to deteriorate through sunrise as light winds and clear skies remain over much of the area. Fog may reduce visibilities below one quarter mile at times creating hazardous driving conditions. Dense fog is most likely to occur in low lying areas... rural areas... and near bodies of water. Visibilities are expected to begin to improve after sunrise with most fog burning off by 9 am CDT.
Precautionary/preparedness actions...
A dense fog advisory means visibilities will be reduced to less than one quarter mile. If driving... slow down... use your low-beam headlights... and leave plenty of distance between you and the vehicle ahead of you.
