Foggy Mornings Expected Rest Of Work Week
SACRAMENTO (CBS13) — Fog replaced the rain for morning commuters on Wednesday, and more of the patchy stuff is expected the rest of the work week.
Wednesday morning visibility was extremely limited, less than a quarter of a mile in some spots.
"It was pretty dense, hard to see a couple feet in front of you," truck driver Luis Castaneda said. "Had to keep it slow, very slow."
Early on in Stockton on Interstate 5 near the Crosstown Freeway, traffic slowed for a three-car crash.
Officers gave one of the drivers a field sobriety test as cars crawled by.
Later, a pickup truck overturned near the same spot. The driver had minor injuries. Although the fog hampered visibility, the CHP doubted it played a factor.
By late morning the sun was shining brightly in Sacramento and the Wednesday high was expected to reach 62 degrees, but the fog will creep back into the valley at night, according to the National Weather Service.
The forecast calls for dense fog Thursday morning and patchy fog Friday morning before 10 a.m.
Partly cloudy skies are forecast for Saturday and there's a chance of showers on Sunday.
