Cass County, IN – Authorities have issued a patchy dense fog advisory for several counties across Northern Indiana, affecting morning commuters on Tuesday. The advisory, issued by the Cass County Emergency Management Agency, warns that local visibility could drop to or below a quarter mile through sunrise, creating hazardous driving conditions across the region.
According to the advisory, the affected areas include a wide stretch of Northern Indiana, encompassing the cities of Elkhart, Goshen, South Bend, and Logansport, among others. The dense fog is expected to significantly reduce visibility, especially in rural areas and along highways, making travel treacherous during the early morning hours.
Residents are advised to exercise extreme caution while driving, particularly on less populated roads where the fog may be more concentrated. The advisory suggests that drivers reduce speed, use low-beam headlights, and allow extra time to reach their destinations safely. The fog is expected to lift gradually after sunrise, but motorists are encouraged to remain vigilant until conditions improve.
This advisory follows a pattern of similar weather alerts issued across the Midwest, underscoring the region’s ongoing challenges with summer fog conditions.
