"If a dense fog advisory is issued for your area, it means that widespread dense fog has developed and visibility often drops to just a quarter-mile or less. These conditions can make driving challenging, so exercise extreme caution on the road, and if possible, consider delaying your trip. If driving through fog becomes inevitable, remember these safety guidelines: Moderate your speed: Slow down and allocate extra travel time to reach your destination safely."
"Visibility priority: Ensure your vehicle is visible to others by using low-beam headlights, which also activate your taillights. If available, employ your fog lights. Avoid high-beams: Refrain from using high-beam lights, as they create glare, making it more difficult for you to see what's ahead of you on the road. Keep your distance: Maintain a generous following distance to account for abrupt stops or shifting traffic patterns."
An updated dense fog advisory covers Carquinez Strait and Delta, Northern Sacramento Valley, Central Sacramento Valley, Southern Sacramento Valley and Northern San Joaquin Valley from 10 p.m. until Friday, Nov. 28, at 11 a.m. Anticipate visibility of one quarter mile or less, which can make driving hazardous. Drivers are advised to slow down, use low-beam headlights and fog lights if available, avoid high beams, maintain generous following distances, and stay within lane markings. In near-zero visibility, activate hazard lights and seek a secure parking area or pull far off the roadway if no parking is available.
