Dense Fog Advisory Issued for Central Oregon
The National Weather Service updated a dense fog advisory on Wednesday at 7:38 a.m. for Central Oregon.
Visibility and Driving Conditions
Visibility can drop to as low as one quarter of a mile in dense fog.
Such low visibility may create hazardous driving conditions.
If driving, slow down, use your headlights, and leave plenty of space ahead.
Understanding the Advisory
A dense fog advisory signals widespread fog reducing visibility to a quarter-mile or less. These conditions make travel risky, so it’s best to drive cautiously or delay trips if possible.
Safety Tips for Driving in Fog
- Reduce your speed and allow extra travel time.
- Use low-beam headlights to keep your vehicle visible; these also turn on your taillights.
- Use fog lights if your vehicle has them.
- Avoid high-beam headlights—they create glare that impairs visibility.
- Maintain a large following distance to anticipate sudden stops.
- Use road lane markings to stay in the correct lane.
