A Dense Fog Advisory has been issued for portions of southwest and west central Kansas, effective immediately until 10:00 AM CDT today, September 28. The National Weather Service (NWS) in Dodge City, KS, warns of visibility reduced to one-quarter mile or less in dense fog.

The advisory impacts residents in Scott, Lane, Hamilton, Kearny, Finney, Stanton, Grant, Haskell, Gray, Morton, Stevens, Seward, and Meade counties. Drivers in these areas should exercise extreme caution.

Low visibility can make driving conditions hazardous. If you must travel, the NWS advises slowing down, using your headlights, and ensuring you leave plenty of distance between your vehicle and others on the road. The advisory is set to expire at 10:00 AM CDT (9:00 AM MDT).
