Dense fog continues Thursday evening

 


The Dense Fog Advisory has been extended until 9pm for Green, Rock, and Walworth counties in southern Wisconsin and for Winnebago, Boone, Ogle, Lee, DeKalb, and McHenry counties in northern Illinois. It'll last until 3am Friday for Stephenson, Jo Daviess, Carroll, and Whiteside counties.

Little improvement in visibility has occurred this afternoon as most locations are still down to half a mile or less. In fact, as of 4pm several locations are reporting zero-mile visibility. As the sun sets soon, and a slight cooling trend occurs, the fog we currently have in place will continue and may become slightly worse through the late evening. This will make travel very difficult during that time. Please make sure you are traveling with caution as the fog continues.


An increasing chance for rain showers Friday morning should help eliminate some of the fog Friday, but some may linger as we sit just north of a warm front during the afternoon and evening. Temperatures will remain in the 40s during the afternoon with increasing rain chances through Friday evening.
