Special Weather Statement
Statement as of 8:57 PM CST on November 21, 2009
... Fog expected to become dense in low-lying areas in eastern
Wisconsin tonight...
Fog is expected tonight in eastern Wisconsin. Most of the area
will have visibilities drop to 1 to 2 miles by midnight. But the
fog will become much more dense in low-lying areas and along river
valleys. The visibility in such locations will fall below 1/4
mile... and could drop below a hundred feet at times. This will
create hazardous travel conditions.
Anyone traveling tonight should be prepared to encounter
fog... and plan accordingly. If you encounter a fog bank while
driving on the Highway... always use your low-beam headlights and
slow down to a speed at which you can safely stop if you encounter
an animal or object in the roadway.
Clouds and a little more winds will greatly limit the amount of
fog that develops in central and north-central Wisconsin.
