Morning Fog Causes Delays At DIA
By Rebecca Valdez
DENVER (CBS4) - Morning fog is causing delays at Denver International Airport.
The National Weather Service says the fog will last through mid morning and visibility could be less than a quarter mile at times.
Areas of dense fog can be expected through rush hour, mainly over the northern Denver suburbs north to Longmont, Platteville and Hudson. Slow down, use low beam headlights, and allow extra room in case you need to stop! #cowx
