...DENSE RIVER VALLEY FOG MAY BECOME LOCALLY DENSE THIS MORNING...

The combination of clear sky and light wind has led to the
formation of dense river valley fog, and this fog is likely to
become more extensive along the rivers and mountain valleys
through the early morning hours. Be prepared for sudden changes
in visibility, which could drop below a quarter mile.

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.
