October 22 Dense Fog Advisory First Forecast And Climate

Thursday October 22 2020

A Dense Fog Advisory is in place again for much of the region. The fog began to form shortly after sunset last evening. This morning many areas in central Maryland and southern PA have near Zero visibility. It is so thick in some places, it’s more like a heavy mist and you will need your windshield wipers.

This will slowly burn off, and bring yet another warm afternoon.

Here is first look weather forecast, and NEW GFS Interactive simulation slider.  Also see the journal of Maryland Weather conditions observed in Baltimore yesterday, climate report today, sunrise/sunset, moon phase, and daily weather map.

Dense Fog Advisory 

The Dense Fog Advisory shown below lasts until 10 AM. But like yesterday, some areas may get that extended to noon.

See the visibility report below.

 

 

Visibility

The thicker fog is where the numbers are in red and purple. Many areas under 1 mile!

The worst fog appears to be near BWI, Howard County, and north of Baltimore. This will be dangerous along I-95, the Baltimore Beltway, and southern PA.

 

Temperatures 

A very mild start to the day!
