Friday March 20 2020
Spring has officially begun and it will feel like it today, for one day. Traffic is very low with the COVID19 State of Emergency, but there have been accidents in the low visibility.
This morning a Dense Fog Advisory is in place. This is the result of warm air trying to cool the cool moist air out of the region. The fog should dissipate between 8 and 9 AM. As we warm to the mid 70s and approach 80ºF, there will be showers mixing in.

Visibility
Under .50 mile in the Advisory area, but quickly jumping to 10 miles where the warm air has arrived
Temperatures
Morning Surface Weather

How Warm?
This will depend on how much sun you see and the progress of the rain. Here are three model temperature forecasts:
