Description:
Areas of fog will slowly expand across parts of the South Carolina
Lowcountry into Southeast Georgia through daybreak. The fog could
become locally dense at times with visibilities dropping to 1/4 mile
or less. The nature of the fog is such that visibilities will vary
greatly over short distances with the risk for locally dense fog
being the greatest near bodies of water and other low-lying areas
such as marshes, swamps and large ditches. Motorists should remain
alert for these conditions this morning.
Instruction:
If driving, slow down and leave extra distance ahead of you in case a
sudden stop is needed.
