South Bend, IN — A dense fog advisory remains in effect for northern Indiana and southwest Michigan until 10 a.m. Saturday, causing hazardous driving conditions with visibility reduced to a quarter mile or less.
According to the National Weather Service, the advisory impacts major roadways, including I-90 and U.S. 31, and extends across Benton Harbor, St. Joseph, and South Bend. Drivers should reduce speeds, use headlights, and leave ample distance between vehicles to prevent accidents.
Fog is expected to lift by mid-morning, but until then, visibility will continue to fluctuate, posing significant risks, particularly on highways. Motorists should allow extra time to reach their destinations and avoid sudden stops.
Looking ahead, clearer skies and mild conditions are forecast for Sunday, with temperatures rising into the mid-70s. However, another bout of fog may return late next week, making travel conditions challenging once again.
