Freezing fog prompts caution along Tennessee River, officials warn

The National Weather Service in Memphis issued a warning about patchy dense freezing fog in northeast Mississippi, primarily along the Tennessee River.

The fog is expected to last less than an hour but could lead to slick roadways, especially on less-traveled routes, according to officials.

Drivers are advised to exercise caution and reduce speeds in affected areas as visibility may be limited and road conditions hazardous.

Meteorologists continue to monitor the situation and will provide updates as needed.
