Early Morning Fog Hovers Over Inland Areas


Morning fog, though not everywhere, is thick enough in places to cut visibility to one-quarter mile or less. The weather service says it could linger into midmorning as low clouds stay around.

Visibility is fine in Tampa, but places to the east and north have patchy areas where it’s pretty thick. Visibility in Lakeland and eastern Hillsborough is down to one-quarter mile, and it’s the same in eastern Hernando County and around the Villages in Sumter County.

Even though a stalled front broke apart over West Central Florida and towed in some dry air, there’s enough moisture around to combine with the relatively low temperatures and create fog.

Once it lifts, we’re facing another day of sun, few clouds, only the barest chance of rain and temperatures in the middle 80s.

The weather service expects temperatures to climb though the week and eventually reach the upper 80s or lower end of the 90s, especially toward the weekend, though the long-range forecast still calls for the morning lows to remain below 70.
