Areas of fog with visibilities down to a mile are now occurring 

in Elk and Chautauqua counties. While most of the fog in these 

counties is around a mile or a little above. Weather conditions 

have created some areas of dense fog with visibilities below one 

quarter of a mile. Areas along Kansas Highway 99 from Howard to 

Sedan have had numerous reports of visibilities as low as 50 feet 

at time. 



Motorist are urged to use caution while driving in the affected

areas. Visibilities can change rapidly dropping to as little as

50ft in a very short period of time and distance. Use low bean 

head lights in fog to ensure you do not blind yourself and other 

drivers. Slower speeds and increased following distance is

recommend as well to increase safety.
