Rainfall recap and fog continuing into weekend

 Walking outside yesterday it felt like at least some sort of rain was falling all day yesterday. Multiple instances of drizzle and heavier rainfall stuck around the state line yesterday and although it wasn't snow, higher than average precipitation did end up falling yesterday!

With consistent rainfall yesterday, we were able to record nearly a half an inch of precipitation with some lingering rain showers still sticking around the state line as of 5:30 p.m. which is significantly above the daily average for this time of year. The big thing to note though is the lack of snowfall we've received this month. It's hard to believe but we're actually higher in terms of monthly snowfall totals this December than the last! It sure has been a dry December though rain or snow as we're still below average in both departments!

Into tonight, drier air will enter the mid-levels of the atmosphere allowing the upper air to dry out just a little. However, at the surface, we'll remain close to our dewpoint temperature. Combining that with very light winds we will once again see some patchy to dense fog for some areas across the state line. Within the fog too we may see a very isolated shower role through so not all rainfall is done yet!

Towards the morning hours tomorrow, more rain showers begin to slowly push in from our south. As of now chances remain highest to our east as a low-pressure system slides to our southeast keeping the best moisture stunted to our southeast. Either way, surface moisture will make its way into the state line so if there is no rainfall fog will still be possible during the morning hours tomorrow.

If you are heading out tomorrow morning, just be extra careful driving. Visibility can change rapidly so make sure to take it slow in the morning and use low beam head lights to help with visibility. Although dense fog advisories are not in place, it's still important to treat any fog the same as a small decrease in elevation can cause fog to thicken quick! After tomorrow morning though, conditions should clear out for once again another cloudy day!
