* WHAT...Visibility one quarter mile or less in dense fog. * WHERE...East Bay Interior Valleys and the eastern half of the San Francisco Bay Shoreline. * WHEN...Until 11 AM PST this morning. * IMPACTS...Low visibility could make driving conditions hazardous. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Visibilities will be slowly improving through 11am, though travelers will continue to move in and out of dense fog around the Bay area.

If driving, slow down, use your headlights, and leave plenty of distance ahead of you. Patchy dense fog will result in sudden changes in visibility.

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons, and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
