Special Weather Statement
Urgency: 
Expected
Effective: 
March 6, 2026 - 2:58am
Expires: 
March 6, 2026 - 5:00am
Description: 
Areas of fog will continue affecting much of south central and central Nebraska through around 7 or 8 AM, with this fog focused within a relatively narrow zone to the north of a warm front, and to the south of an approaching cold front. Although visibility will vary across the area, some places could experience a few more hours of dense fog reducing visibility to at least 1/2 to 1/4 mile, before the advancing cold front helps to scour it out and improve visibility. Given that the coverage of truly dense fog with visibility 1/4 mile or less is somewhat limited across the area as a whole, and that any dense fog should not last more than a few hours in any given location, a formal Dense Fog Advisory is not anticipated. However, please use caution this morning if encountering any dense fog while driving. Slow down, turn on your headlights, and leave plenty of distance in front of you.
