Recommendation
Drive with low-beam headlights and extra following distance in the morning fog. Safer morning window: after 10:00am and before 11:00am, once fog thins but before the heaviest rain. Safer evening window: 5:00pm-7:00pm, when rain has ended and roads are only wet. Avoid non-essential travel 7:00-10:00am (dense fog) and 11:00am-3:00pm (steadiest rain).
