10/08/2025 - As showers and storms wrap up across the region, our sky is expected to continue to clear. That is until areas of patchy dense fog begin to develop around the region! Locations that saw rainfall have the highest likelihood of seeing dense fog through the first few hours of daylight on Thursday. Be sure to reduce your speed, keep your headlights on low beam, leave extra space between you and the vehicle in front of you and factor in a little extra time for your morning commute! Temperatures will settle into the mid 50s to mid 60s around sunrise on Thursday. Winds will be light out of the southeast, sustained around 5-10 MPH.
