South Florida rings in New Year’s Eve under dense fog advisory
PEMBROKE PARK, Fla. – South Florida residents woke up Tuesday to dense fog on the final day of 2024, prompting a dense fog advisory for Broward, Miami-Dade, and surrounding areas until 10 a.m.
The thick fog is causing reduced visibility, particularly in inland areas like Alligator Alley and Homestead, where visibility is less than a mile.
Local 10 Meteorologist Julie Durda explained the weather phenomenon, attributing the fog to warm surface temperatures interacting with cooler air, creating low-level condensation.
6 a.m. report
She said coastal areas, including Pompano Beach, are seeing slightly better visibility at 1.5 miles, while the Florida Keys remain mostly clear with 10-mile visibility.
Temperatures started in the upper 60s to low 70s, matching dew points and adding to the humid conditions. Winds are calm this morning, and once the fog clears, South Florida is expected to enjoy abundant sunshine with a slight chance of showers.
Durda noted that a weak front near Lake Okeechobee is bringing some atmospheric instability, but the forecast for the rest of the day is warm and sunny, with highs potentially reaching record levels.
As South Florida prepares to ring in the New Year, motorists are advised to drive cautiously in low-visibility areas, particularly along Alligator Alley and other fog-prone routes.
