Green Bay, WI – Morning commuters across Wisconsin are facing hazardous travel conditions Friday as a Dense Fog Advisory remains in effect until 10 a.m.
According to the National Weather Service Green Bay, widespread dense fog developed overnight and is reducing visibility to between one-quarter and one-half mile in many areas. The advisory covers much of northeast Wisconsin, including Brown, Outagamie, Winnebago, and surrounding counties.
The fog is expected to persist through the mid-morning hours before lifting around 10 a.m. Motorists are urged to prepare for sudden drops in visibility along highways and rural roads. “When driving in fog, remember to slow down, turn on your low-beam headlights, and maintain a safe distance between you and the car in front of you,” the weather service advised.
The dense fog poses significant risks for commuters heading to work or school, with rapidly changing conditions possible over short distances. Drivers should also avoid using high beams, which can reflect off the fog and make visibility worse.
By late morning, forecasters expect the fog to dissipate as temperatures rise, improving travel conditions heading into the afternoon.
