Earlier Updates and Context:
Update, October 27, 4:03 p.m. CDT: Dense fog may redevelop Tuesday evening into Wednesday morning across east-central Colorado, northwest Kansas and extreme southwestern Nebraska, the National Weather Service’s Goodland office said in its 1:32 p.m. MDT outlook.
The possible fog includes parts of Interstate 70 in eastern Colorado and northwest Kansas. The agency said visibility could fall to a quarter-mile or less if dense fog develops. This is a conditional forecast of an overnight hazard, rather than confirmation that fog has already returned.
