…Significant Weather Advisory for Patchy Dense Fog across
northeast Alabama…
Patchy Dense Fog has developed across portions of northeast Alabama,
with visibilities dropping to one quarter of a mile or less in
isolated areas.
The threat for dense fog early this morning will primarily be
confined to the larger river valleys of northeast Alabama, such as
the Dekalb, Paint Rock, and Tennessee, with rapid fluctuations in
visibility expected along several major thoroughfares, such as
Interstate 59 and US Highway 72. However, a developing deck of low
stratus clouds may result in visibility reductions along higher ridge
tops as well.
Motorists are urged to drive with extreme caution, as visibilities
will vary significantly given the patchy nature of the dense fog. Use
low beams, reduce driving speed, and allow for plenty of room
between you and other cars.
The fog should begin to burn off by 9 AM CDT.
Stay tuned to NOAA Weather Radio, or a favorite local media outlet,
for further statements or updates from the National Weather Service
in Huntsville.
