...AREAS OF FOG LOCALLY DENSE WILL SLOWLY DISSIPATE AS THE EVENING
PROGRESSES...
 
FOG WILL SLOWLY DISPERSE AS THE EVENING CONTINUES. MOST LOCATIONS
HAVE VISIBILITIES OF ONE MILE OR LESS. SOME LOCATIONS, PARTICULARLY
IN SECTIONS OF THE RARITAN AND PASSAIC VALLEYS, HAVE VISIBILITIES
OF ONE QUARTER OF A MILE OR LESS.

WHILE THE WARM FRONT HAS STALLED, THE COLD FRONT IS MAKING
PROGRESS IN PENNSYLVANIA AND SHOULD CLEAR THE NEW JERSEY COAST BY
AROUND MIDNIGHT. UNTIL THEN, WHEN TRAVELING PLEASE BE WARY OF
CHANGING VISIBILITIES AND ROAD CONDITIONS. PLEASE USE YOUR LOW
BEAMS IN THICKER FOG PATCHES AND LEAVE GREATER DISTANCES BETWEEN
YOURSELF AND THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF YOU.

THE FOG WILL NOT BE A PROBLEM FOR THE MORNING COMMUTE. BUT, RUNOFF
FROM THE MELTING SNOW WILL FREEZE OVERNIGHT. THIS WILL MAKE FOR
SLIPPERY TRAVELING SPOTS WHERE ROADWAYS HAVE LOST THEIR SALT
TREATMENT.
