Spokane, WA – A Dense Fog Advisory remains in effect until 11 a.m. today for much of eastern Washington and parts of north Idaho, according to the National Weather Service Spokane. The advisory includes Spokane, Pullman, Colfax, and surrounding communities, where morning commuters are facing sharply reduced visibility.
According to the NWS, dense fog has settled across the region with some areas seeing visibility drop to a quarter-mile or less. Traffic cameras from Colfax, Lewiston, and Spokane show thick fog limiting sightlines and slowing drivers along major routes including U.S. 195 and I-90.
Officials warn that the fog may cause hazardous travel conditions during the morning rush hour. Motorists are advised to use low-beam headlights, reduce speed, and allow extra time for their morning drive. The fog is expected to gradually lift into a low cloud deck later this morning, though lingering mist and damp roadways could persist through midday.
Residents are encouraged to monitor local forecasts for updates and use caution when driving through affected areas.
