Dense Fog Advisory through 11am for areas east of the William Floyd Parkway. Dense fog will create poor visibility. Use caution driving.

Morning fog will start the day across the area, but that gray start should gradually give way to a mix of afternoon sunshine and clouds. Once the fog burns off, it will turn into a warm and pleasant day for early March. Temperatures will climb into the 50s along the shoreline, while away from the water, spots warm into the 60s to near 70.

For tonight, clouds will thicken up again, and areas of fog are expected to redevelop, especially late at night and toward daybreak. It won’t be nearly as chilly as some recent nights, with low temperatures settling into the 30s to lower 40s. With the fog and clouds around, visibility could drop in spots for the early morning commute.

Wednesday will start off with more morning fog before skies remain mostly cloudy through much of the day. A couple of rain showers will develop in the afternoon. Temperatures will still be relatively mild, reaching the 50s and 60s once again, but a cooler pattern is expected to settle in as we head toward the weekend, with highs dropping back into the 40s.
