The National Weather Service in Milwaukee/Sullivan has issued a dense fog advisory, which is in effect until 3:00 p.m. this afternoon.

Abundant moisture in the lower levels of the atmosphere, and light winds, will continue to produce widespread dense fog across much of southern Wisconsin through mid afternoon. Visibilities will be reduced to less than 1/2 mile, with some areas near zero at times. Conditions will improve later this afternoon as winds turn northwest and increase.

A dense fog advisory is issued when visibilities are reduced frequently to less than 1/4 mile due to dense fog. If driving, slow down and use your low beam headlights. Leave plenty of distance between you and objects ahead.
