Areas of fog this morning across eastern Long Island and Southeast
Connecticut will vary mostly between a half mile and a mile for
the first half of this morning, however there will be few areas of
dense fog where the visibility is reduced to a quarter of a mile
or less.
Motorists should be aware of changing visibilities. Use low beam
headlights, reduce speeds, and leave extra distance between yourself
and the vehicle in front of you.
