Recommendation
Avoid driving during the patchy fog window if possible (06:00–09:00 local time). Safer driving windows today: Morning: 09:00–11:00 AM local time (after fog should dissipate). Evening: 17:00–19:00 (5:00–7:00 PM) local time. If you must drive during the fog, use low speeds, headlights, and increased following distance.
