Expected

Expires:
March 3, 2026 - 7:00pm
Description:
Sea fog is developing as low stratus clouds settle to the ground
from the coast and intracoastal waters towards I-95 with locations
at Craig airfield, Fernandina Beach, and Mayport reporting visibility
around 1 mile. The sea fog will occasionally reduce visibilities to
under 1 mile through sunset and the early evening hours. Dense sea fog
will likely expand inland during the early to mid evening hours, when
Dense Fog Advisories will likely be re-issued for all of coastal
southeast Georgia and coastal northeast Florida.
Motorists should remain alert for sudden changes in visibility
this afternoon, particularly along coastal roads such as A-1A in
northeast Florida and U.S. Highway 17 in southeast Georgia. If
you encounter sea fog while driving in these coastal locations
this afternoon, slow down and leave extra distance ahead of you in
case a sudden stop is needed.
