Fog and periods of rain are expected this evening and overnight as several rain bands work north across the area. At 700 PM...the first band of rain was north of a line from Merrill...to Marinette...to Sturgeon Bay. Visibilities within the area experiencing the steady rain were at least a couple of miles. Areas to the south of the band were experiencing a lull in the precipitation...with just some occasional light rain and drizzle. Visibilities in these areas were decreasing...with many stations reporting 1/4 to 1 mile visibilities. Even farther south...another band of rain was developing in southern Wisconsin. A few thunderstorms were embedded in this band. This band will shift north...and should affect central and east-central Wisconsin during the middle and late evening hours. Visibilities are expected to vary during the night. At times when steady rain is falling...visibilities of a mile or two are likely. During lulls in the precipitation...visibilities will fall...and could drop to less than 1/4 mile at times. Anyone traveling tonight should expect to encounter variable conditions. If you encounter dense fog while driving...it is important to slow down to the point where you can safely stop your vehicle within the distance illuminated by your headlights. Be sure to always turn on your headlights...even in the daytime. Always use your low-beam headlights.
