Dense Fog Advisory in Effect Across Delmarva Until 10 AM

Dense fog is reducing visibility to a quarter mile or less across much of Delmarva this morning, creating hazardous driving conditions until 10 AM.

A Dense Fog Advisory is currently in effect across much of the Delmarva Peninsula, with visibility dropping to just a quarter mile or less in some areas this morning. The National Weather Service issued the advisory at 1:10 AM and it remains in effect until 10:00 AM today. The dense fog is impacting portions of central and southern Delaware, including Kent County, inland Sussex County, and Delaware’s beaches, along with parts of the Eastern Shore of Maryland and southern New Jersey. Motorists are experiencing hazardous driving conditions due to the severely reduced visibility. If you must travel this morning, the National Weather Service strongly recommends slowing down, using your headlights, and leaving plenty of distance between your vehicle and the car ahead of you. The fog is expected to gradually lift as we move through the morning hours, with conditions improving by mid-morning. However, drivers should remain cautious during the morning commute as pockets of dense fog may linger in some areas. We’ll continue monitoring conditions throughout the morning and provide updates as the fog begins to clear.
