Fog and Rain - Not a Good Combination

A Dense Fog Advisory continues for Rock and Green counties in southern Wisconsin and Jo Daviess, Stephenson, Carroll, Winnebago, Boone, Ogle, Lee and DeKalb counties in northern Illinois.  Visibility early this morning was down to zero in some spots so make sure you take it easy on the roadways.

Along with the fog, rain will also be making an appearance across the region.  The showers and even a few embedded thunderstorms will continue to move northeast with the heaviest of the rain likely staying just east of the Rockford area.  These showers are all forming along the nose of the low level jet that continues to pump moisture into the Great Lakes.  A stronger cold front will sweep through later this evening with a few more showers possibly forming along and east of the front.  Once that front moves through much colder air moves in as temperatures fall below freezing and possibly create some slick spots on roads.  That colder and windy weather will last through Saturday with highs only reaching the low 20s with a few flurries.
