At 5:49 a.m. on Tuesday, the National Weather Service released an updated special weather statement that, for the Eastern Columbia River Gorge, Lower Columbia Basin, and Foothills of the Northern Blue Mountains of Oregon, will remain in force until 10 a.m.
“Throughout the morning, patchy, dense fog with visibility of less than a quarter mile will persist across the Kittitas and Yakima Valleys, the eastern Columbia River Gorge, the Blue Mountain Foothills, and the Lower Columbia Basin. There will be slippery patches because of the freezing fog, and temperatures are almost below freezing. The weather service advises avoiding cruise control and leaving plenty of space between cars.
United Robots offers a service called Advance Local Weather Alerts that gathers the most recent information from the National Weather Service using machine learning.
