Dense Fog Blankets Delmarva Coast, Creating Dangerous Driving Conditions

Friday, March 13, 2026 at 6:50 PM

Dense fog with visibility as low as one-quarter mile is creating dangerous driving conditions along Delaware beaches and southern New Jersey coast through Tuesday morning.

A Dense Fog Advisory is in effect for Delaware’s beaches and southern New Jersey coastal areas until 10 AM Tuesday morning, creating hazardous travel conditions with visibility dropping to just one-quarter to one-half mile. The National Weather Service issued the advisory at 7:33 PM Monday evening, warning drivers to exercise extreme caution on roadways. The thick fog is impacting Delaware Beaches, along with Eastern Monmouth, Cape May, Atlantic Coastal Cape May, Coastal Atlantic, and Coastal Ocean counties in New Jersey. Motorsts traveling through these areas should slow down significantly, turn on headlights, and maintain extra distance between vehicles. The poor visibility makes it difficult to see other cars, road signs, and potential hazards ahead. ‘Low visibility could make driving conditions hazardous,’ the Weather Service warns. Officials recommend avoiding unnecessary travel during overnight hours when the fog is expected to be most dense. The fog advisory will remain in effect through Tuesday morning’s commute, with conditions expected to gradually improve after 10 AM as temperatures rise and winds increase. Commuters should plan extra time for their Tuesday morning travels and consider alternate routes if possible.
