...Patchy Dense Fog This Morning...

Patchy dense fog will continue to develop across portions of 
northwest Illinois through the early morning hours. The fog will 
be locally dense with visibility reduced down to a quarter mile in
some locations such as river valleys and other low lying 
locations. Visibility will improve by 8 AM as the sun angle grows
stronger. 

If traveling this morning, be prepared for rapid changes in 
visibilities over very short distances, make sure to slow down, 
and keep plenty of stopping distance between yourself and other 
vehicles.

If visibilities down to one quarter mile become widespread across
a portion of the Special Weather Statement area, a Dense Fog 
Advisory may be issued.
