Warnings and Notices

	Special Weather Statement
Statement as of 5:05 AM PST on December 02, 2008 ... Widespread fog continues this morning in the central and southern San Joaquin Valley... Fog and low clouds remain across the central and southern San Joaquin Valley this morning. Visibilities early this morning are generally from 1/4 to 3/4 mile. An upper level disturbance passing through the area will help keep dense fog from becoming widespread this morning. However this does not mean there cannot be... or wont be some patches of dense fog with visibilities reduced to a few hundred feet. If traveling this morning... be prepared for the possibility of dense fog and allow a little extra time to reach your destination. Motorists should exercise caution and be prepared for rapidly changing visibilities. Slow down... put your headlights on low beam... and leave plenty of room between you and the vehicles in front of you. Stay tuned to NOAA Weather Radio or your favorite news source for further statements or possible advisories on the valley fog.
