Dense Fog Covers San Diego County Coastline

SAN DIEGO COUNTY, CA – Dense fog along the San Diego County coastline Thursday morning is expected to redevelop in the evening.

A National Weather Service dense fog advisory for coastal areas up to 10 miles inland will remain in effect until 10 a.m. Included under the advisory are the cities of Carlsbad, Chula Vista, Encinitas, National City, San Diego and Vista.

The fog may cause visibility to drop to a quarter-mile or less at times, which could lead to hazardous driving conditions on Interstate 5, 8 and 805 and on state Route 163. Drivers were urged to slow down, turn on their low beam headlights and stay back from vehicles ahead of them.

Forecasters said delays may also be possible at Lindbergh Field.

The fog will likely redevelop each night through Saturday, according to the weather service.
