River Valley Fog Limits Visibility In Region
Patchy fog reduced visibility to a quarter-mile in some areas Monday morning. The weather will change at midweek and bring chances of rain and cooler temperatures.
ALTON/HARDIN — Patchy fog reduced visibility to a quarter-mile in some St. Louis-area river valleys early Monday, Nov. 9, before giving way to a forecast of sunny, mild weather, according to the National Weather Service in St. Louis.
The fog affected parts of the region, particularly river valleys and low-lying areas, through 9 a.m. Submitted photos from the Mississippi River area and a recently submitted image focused on the Joe Page Bridge in Hardin showed the difficulty caused by reduced fog visibility. Law enforcement urges anyone driving in intense fog to slow down and drive with caution or wait until it disappears.
