Sacramento, CA – A dense fog advisory remains in place this morning across portions of the Sacramento Valley, San Joaquin Valley, and Delta region, creating hazardous travel conditions. The National Weather Service (NWS) warns drivers to expect visibility as low as one-quarter mile along major routes like I-5 and Highway 99.

According to the NWS, the advisory is active until noon today, with widespread fog making travel especially dangerous in low-lying areas. Drivers should reduce speeds, use low-beam headlights, and maintain a safe distance from other vehicles. The morning commute could be challenging, particularly for those traveling in and around Sacramento, Stockton, and Modesto.

Fog is expected to clear by early afternoon, giving way to sunny skies and a high of 63 degrees in Sacramento. However, another weather pattern is set to bring colder temperatures overnight, with frost likely developing Monday and Tuesday mornings. Lows will dip into the mid-30s, prompting residents to take precautions for sensitive plants and outdoor pets.

Looking ahead, Sacramento will enjoy mostly sunny skies through midweek. Highs are forecast to range between 56 and 61 degrees, with light winds providing a crisp but pleasant atmosphere. Drivers should remain alert for patchy morning fog in the coming days, especially in rural and agricultural areas.

Stay updated with real-time weather alerts and plan extra time for morning commutes. Local authorities urge caution while driving until the advisory expires.
