Hey there, folks! If you’re waking up in Lancaster or nearby areas this Tuesday morning, you might want to grab that extra cup of coffee and take it slow. The National Weather Service (NWS) has issued a dense fog warning that went into effect late last night and will stick around until 3 a.m. today. This alert covers Northern Lancaster, Southern Lancaster, Chesterfield, Newberry, Fairfield, and Kershaw counties. So buckle up and let’s get the scoop!
According to the NWS, patchy dense fog has settled in across the northern parts of our forecast area. Now, while you might think it’s just a bit of mist, the NWS warns that this can get pretty tricky when you hit those foggy patches. Expect visibility to drop as low as ½ mile to 1 mile in some areas. That’s pretty much like trying to find your way in a cloud! Not to worry though—by following a few simple safety tips, you can navigate through this fog without any hiccups.
If you have to be out and about in these foggy conditions, keeping safety in mind is absolutely essential. Here are some tips straight from the NWS to help you get where you’re going without any drama:
As we move through the early hours of Tuesday, be prepared for potentially tricky driving conditions, especially as daybreak approaches. Keep in mind that fog can thicken or clear up unexpectedly, so stay alert and make sure your vehicle’s lights are in working order.
So, whether you’re heading to work, school, or just running errands, remember these safety tips to navigate through the fog. While it’s always nice to get that fresh morning air, fog can be tricky, so let’s all be safe out there! Keep those headlights on, take your time, and if you can, maybe enjoy a few more minutes of coziness at home until that fog lifts.
