Visibility may drop below 1/2 to 1/4 mile at times. Conditions should start to improve after sunrise. Motorists should be alert for sudden changes in visibility due to the areas of dense fog. Slow down, use low-beams headlights, and account for extra time to reach your destination safely this morning.
