Wisconsin Weather Alert: Dense Fog Creates Hazardous Travel for Morning Commuters

GREEN BAY, WISCONSIN – A Dense Fog Advisory is in effect across parts of northeast Wisconsin Friday morning, reducing visibility to as little as a quarter-mile and creating hazardous driving conditions for commuters.

Fog Advisory Details

According to the National Weather Service in Green Bay, widespread fog developed overnight and is impacting Brown, Outagamie, Winnebago, and nearby counties. The advisory remains in effect until 10 a.m.

Motorists are urged to prepare for sudden drops in visibility along highways and rural routes.

Safety Tips for Drivers

Forecasters reminded drivers to slow down, use low-beam headlights, and leave extra space between vehicles when traveling through fog.
