…PATCHY DENSE FOG EXPECTED TONIGHT THROUGH MUCH OF WEDNESDAY
MORNING ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS…

Areas of fog will increase overnight and become locally dense in
some areas. The visibility may be reduced to one-quarter to one-
half mile in some locations through Wednesday morning, and could
be quite variable over short distances.

If traveling in the mountains tonight through Wednesday morning,
be prepared to encounter patchy dense fog. Drive slowly, use your
low-beam headlights and fog lamps, and allow extra stopping
distance. The foggy conditions may be very slow to improve through
the day on Wednesday.
