Dense Fog Advisory Impacts Delaware Beaches, South Jersey Coastal Areas Through Tuesday Morning

Dense fog is reducing visibility to just one-quarter mile across Delaware beaches and South Jersey coastal areas through Tuesday morning.

A Dense Fog Advisory is in effect for Delaware’s coastal communities and parts of South Jersey until 10 AM Tuesday morning, creating hazardous driving conditions with visibility dropping to just one-quarter to one-half mile. The National Weather Service issued the advisory at 7:33 PM Monday, warning residents in Delaware Beaches, along with Eastern Monmouth, Cape May, Atlantic Coastal Cape May, Coastal Atlantic, and Coastal Ocean counties in New Jersey to exercise extreme caution on the roads. The thick fog is expected to persist overnight and into the early morning hours, making Tuesday’s commute particularly treacherous for drivers along coastal routes and bridges. Motorists are urged to slow down significantly, use low-beam headlights, and maintain extra following distance. Avoid using high beams, which can reflect off the fog and actually reduce visibility further. The advisory remains in effect until 10 AM Tuesday, though conditions may improve gradually as morning temperatures rise and winds increase. Drivers should allow extra time for their commute and consider delaying non-essential travel until visibility improves.
