...Locally dense fog along the Interstate 70 corridor from Colby
to Oakley early this morning...

At 4 AM CDT, the automated weather observation site in Colby
continued to report dense fog, with visibility at or below one
quarter mile. At Oakley, visibility has been fluctuating between 2
and 5 miles. Locally dense fog is anticipated to lift and
dissipate by 5 or 6 AM CDT, as winds abruptly shift to the
northwest and increase to 15 to 25 mph in the wake of a modest
cold frontal passage.

Drivers are urged to slow down and exercise additional caution,
especially at intersections and highway onramps and offramps where
accidents are more likely to occur. Use low beam headlights and
be prepared for rapid reductions in visibility.
