Detroit, MI – Southeast Michigan drivers should prepare for reduced visibility and wet roads as fog is expected to blanket the area Tuesday morning. Heavy fog will be followed by rain showers, creating challenging conditions for commuters on major highways such as I-75, I-94, and I-96.
According to the National Weather Service, fog could linger until 9 a.m. Tuesday, reducing visibility in areas like Detroit and Hamtramck. A 60% chance of rain showers follows the fog, with gusts up to 21 mph possible by the afternoon. Motorists should plan for slower travel times and exercise caution, especially in low-visibility zones.
Weather will improve by Wednesday, with sunny skies expected to clear by midday, offering relief to residents. However, until then, Michigan travelers should check forecasts and allow extra travel time, particularly during early morning commutes.
For those commuting across Detroit’s highways, driving with headlights on and maintaining a safe distance is essential.
