A foggy Tuesday morning is expected to affect the entire Pine Belt region today, causing visibility issues for anyone traveling. Residents are urged to be cautious, especially during the early hours when fog will be thickest.
If you’re heading out today, it’s crucial to remember a few key safety tips for driving in dense fog. Always use low beams to improve visibility and avoid high beams, which can reflect off the fog and make it harder to see. Be on the lookout for children waiting at bus stops, as the reduced visibility may make it hard to spot them from a distance. If you have an important meeting or appointment, it’s best to leave a bit earlier than usual, as the fog could slow down traffic and make travel time longer.
By around 10 a.m., the fog will begin to lift, and the skies will clear up, giving way to partly sunny weather. The rest of the day will be much more pleasant, with the temperature rising into the upper 70s, making for a warm and comfortable afternoon.
The foggy conditions aren’t going away just yet, though. Another round of fog is expected to roll in on Wednesday morning, with temperatures dipping into the upper 50s to around 60°F overnight. As the fog lifts by mid-morning, the weather will once again turn partly sunny, with highs in the upper 70s and lows around 60°F.
Thursday promises to bring even better weather, with mostly clear skies. The temperature will climb to the lower 80s, and the overnight lows will remain in the lower 60s, making for a mild and pleasant evening.
Looking ahead to the weekend, it seems the trend of partly cloudy skies will continue. Temperatures will remain in the lower 80s, with lows dipping into the lower 60s. It’s shaping up to be a relatively warm and pleasant week, with more sun and milder temperatures after the foggy mornings clear.

With clearer skies expected later in the day and temperatures warming up, this is a good time to enjoy the outdoors once the fog clears.
