Albuquerque, NM – The National Weather Service in Albuquerque has issued a Dense Fog Advisory for parts of the Central Highlands, including Las Vegas and Clines Corners, where visibility has dropped to a quarter mile or less Tuesday evening.

According to the NWS Albuquerque office, the advisory remains in effect through 10 a.m. Wednesday, October 15, as fog continues to blanket the region, particularly along Interstate 40 near Clines Corners and Interstate 25 near Las Vegas.

Meteorologists warn that low visibility may make travel hazardous, especially during the early morning commute. Drivers are urged to slow down, increase following distance, and use low-beam headlights.

The weather service also recommends delaying travel if possible until the fog lifts mid-morning Wednesday. The advisory comes after several hours of moisture from a passing storm system that has led to saturated air and near-surface fog formation.

Residents across the region are encouraged to check weather.gov/abq or local media outlets for updates as visibility conditions may change overnight.
