Dense Fog Advisory in Effect: Dangerous Driving Conditions Expected Tonight Through Thursday Morning

Saturday, March 7, 2026 at 10:47 AM

Dense fog will reduce visibility to less than one mile across coastal Delmarva from 6 PM tonight through 10 AM Thursday, creating hazardous driving conditions.

A Dense Fog Advisory is now in effect for much of the Delmarva region, with visibility dropping to less than one mile starting at 6 PM tonight and continuing through 10 AM Thursday morning. The National Weather Service issued the advisory for coastal Delaware and southern New Jersey, including Sussex County beaches, Atlantic and Cape May counties in New Jersey, and several other coastal areas. Drivers should expect hazardous conditions during the evening commute and Thursday morning rush hour. The dense fog will create potentially dangerous driving conditions with severely reduced visibility. Meteorologists warn that visibility could drop below one mile, making it difficult to see other vehicles, traffic signals, and road hazards. If you must drive during this period, the National Weather Service recommends slowing down significantly, using your headlights even during daylight hours, and maintaining extra distance between your vehicle and others on the road. Avoid using high beams, as they can actually reduce visibility in fog. The advisory is set to expire at 10 AM Thursday morning as atmospheric conditions are expected to improve. Commuters should allow extra travel time and consider delaying non-essential trips until visibility improves. Stay with TV Delmarva for continued weather updates throughout the evening.
