...DENSE RIVER VALLEY FOG LOCALLY DENSE EARLY THIS MORNING...

The combination of clear sky and light wind has allowed fog to
form and become locally dense early this morning. Be prepared for
sudden changes in visibility, which could drop below a quarter
mile. The fog will persist into or through the morning brush,
before dissipating an hour or two after daybreak.

Motorists should slow down and allow for greater distances
between vehicles. Do not assume the road ahead is unobstructed.
Use low beam headlights, and allow more time to reach your
destination safely.
