one-tenth of an inch, producing a light glaze.

* WHERE...Portions of central, east central, and south central
Nebraska.

* WHEN...Until 9 PM CST this evening.

hazardous conditions could impact the Friday evening commute.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Slow down and use caution while traveling. Prepare for possible
power outages. The latest road conditions for the state you are
calling from can be obtained by calling 5 1 1.

...DENSE FOG ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL NOON CST TODAY...

* WHAT...Visibility as low as one quarter to one half mile in dense
fog and freezing fog.

* WHERE...Portions of north central Kansas and central, east
central, and south central Nebraska, including the Tri Cities.

* WHEN...Until noon CST today.

* IMPACTS...Low visibility could make driving conditions hazardous.
In addition, freezing fog could create a thin layer of ice on
roads, making for potentially slick conditions especially on
bridges and overpasses.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Although not all areas within the Advisory
will experience truly dense fog with visibility 1/4 mile or less,
the areal coverage of visibilities down to at least 1/2 mile
appears sufficient to justify the continuation of this Advisory.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

If driving, slow down, use your headlights, and leave plenty of
distance ahead of you.
