The National Weather Service in Nashville issued a Dense Fog Advisory this morning, warning of the visibility of one-quarter mile or less in dense fog, and the advisory remains in effect until 8 AM CDT. Motorists are urged to exercise caution, slow down, use headlights, and maintain a generous following distance due to the low visibility conditions affecting Middle Tennessee. This includes major cities such as Nashville, Clarksville, and Murfreesboro, as reported by the National Weather Service.

As Labor Day commences with patchy dense fog expected between 7 am and 9 am, the day is set to clear up afterward, with sunny skies and a high near 88 degrees. Northeast 5 to 10 mph wind may gust as high as 20 mph. The National Weather Service details the extended forecast, which states that the evening will cool to a low of around 62 degrees, with similar wind pervading. Residents and visitors alike should take advantage of the clear skies and comfortable temperatures before a change midweek brings partly sunny conditions Tuesday, with a high near 87, before a potential increase in cloud cover and showers as the week progresses.

According to the National Weather Service, the foggy conditions that kicked off the week will have largely dissipated, allowing for mostly cloudy to partly sunny days until the weekend, which is forecasted to return to mostly sunny weather patterns.
