SOUTHWEST FLORIDA — Dense fog is already plaguing parts of the Southwest Florida coastline.
NEW AT 7PM: The Dense Fog Advisory has been expanded beyond Charlotte and Lee counties. It now also includes DeSoto and Sarasota counties to the north and Collier to the south.
As we head through the evening, Meteorologist Katie Walls is concerned that fog will spread inland and impact plans through the evening and tonight.

The National Weather Service in Tampa has issued a Dense Fog Advisory for Charlotte and Lee counties. It goes into effect at 7pm and continues through 10am New Year's Day.
Fog is coating southwest Florida, and more is expected to move in over the next couple of hours.
As you travel tonight, please do so with extreme caution. It may be challenging to see pedestrians crossing the roadway. A friendly reminder to always use your low beams versus your high beams.
