Little Rock, Arkansas – Patchy dense fog could reduce visibility below a quarter mile overnight into Tuesday morning.
According to the National Weather Service in Little Rock, data suggests areas of dense fog may develop Monday night into early Tuesday across portions of Arkansas. While winds may be slightly stronger and cloud cover more scattered than previous nights, localized dense fog remains possible.
Forecasters say visibility could drop to one-quarter mile or less in some locations, particularly in low-lying areas and near rivers and lakes. Conditions may vary significantly over short distances.
The morning commute Tuesday could be impacted in spots, especially along Interstate 30 through Little Rock, Interstate 40 near Conway, and portions of U.S. Highway 65 and U.S. 67.
Unlike widespread fog events, this setup is expected to be more scattered, meaning some drivers may encounter clear conditions while others experience sudden reductions in visibility.
Motorists traveling overnight or before sunrise Tuesday are urged to use low-beam headlights, reduce speed, and allow extra following distance.
Temperatures overnight are expected to remain mild, limiting concerns for widespread icing. However, isolated damp roadways could still create minor travel slowdowns where fog becomes dense.
Students, delivery drivers, and early shift workers should prepare for potential visibility changes before 10 a.m.
Residents are encouraged to monitor updated forecasts at weather.gov/lzk for the latest visibility trends and advisories.
