Overnight fog, then a warm Wednesday

It is unusually warm right now over much of Minnesota and Wisconsin, and we are also seeing higher than normal dew points. As moist air moved over Lake Superior this evening, it cooled to the dew point and some areas of dense fog developed.

The National Weather Service has issued a dense fog advisory until 10 a.m. Wednesday for areas along the north shore of Lake Superior, the Duluth area and portions of northwestern Wisconsin:

The dense fog advisory is shaded grey.

Other parts of Minnesota and Wisconsin could see some patchy fog and drizzle overnight and Wednesday morning.
