Foggy Morning Envelopes San Antonio, Disrupting CommuteFoggy Morning Envelopes San Antonio, Disrupting Commute A thick blanket of fog enveloped San Antonio on Wednesday morning, casting an eerie haze over the city and wreaking havoc on the morning commute. As dawn broke, visibility dropped to near zero in some areas, making it difficult for drivers to navigate the roads. Traffic slowed to a crawl as vehicles crept along, their headlights illuminating only a few feet ahead. Authorities urged motorists to use extreme caution and increase their following distance. Several minor accidents were reported throughout the city, attributed to the reduced visibility. “It’s like driving in a cloud,” said one frustrated commuter. “I can barely see the car in front of me.” The fog also affected public transportation. Some bus routes were delayed or canceled, leaving commuters stranded at bus stops. Meteorologists said the fog was caused by a combination of high humidity and cooler temperatures. The fog is expected to lift by mid-morning as the sun begins to warm the air. “Once the fog burns off, the weather should be beautiful,” said National Weather Service meteorologist Jason Martinez. “We’ll have mostly sunny skies and mild temperatures.” In the meantime, residents and commuters alike were advised to take extra precautions while driving or walking in the fog. * Slow down and allow extra stopping distance. * Use low-beam headlights and fog lights if available. * Be alert for pedestrians and cyclists who may be difficult to see. * Allow extra time for travel. Despite the disruption, the foggy morning provided a picturesque backdrop to the city. Residents shared photos on social media of the fog enveloping buildings, trees, and even the iconic Alamo. As the sun rose higher in the sky, the fog gradually began to thin and dissipate, leaving behind a clear and refreshing day.
