Dense Fog Advisory Through Midweek; Rain Most Of The Week

February 10, 2020

A dense fog advisory is in effect until the middle of the week. A long duration dense fog event is expect to develop along the coast then spread inland, according to the National Weather Service, making driving hazardous with visibilities of one-half mile or less.

We are also looking at the potential for strong to severe storms as a squall line pushes across our area late Wednesday into Thursday ahead of a cold front. The main threat with this squall line will be strong winds. The timing of this system may change, so we will continue to monitor its progression over the next several days.
