But here are some of the cities seeing some fog and reduced visibility as of 6:45 a.m.:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Homestead: 1.9 miles<\/li>\n<li>Opa-locka: 6 miles<\/li>\n<li>Pembroke Pines: 5 miles<\/li>\n<li>Miami: 8 miles<br \/>\n&quot;Keep an eye on that, and just, you know, keep your head on a swivel,&quot; meteorologist Adam Berg says. &quot;And if you do notice some of that fog, just pump the brakes a little, slow it down.&quot;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Future Forecast<\/h2>\n<p>Otherwise, look for the high humidity and very warm temperatures Tuesday. Feels-like temperatures will top out well into the 90s. Winds will continue to be light too, so don&#8217;t count on much relief from the breeze.<br \/>\nRain chances are slowly declining, but a few storms may pop later Tuesday well inland from the coast.<br \/>\nThe rest of the week will be pretty consistent. Warm and humid with low rain chances.<br \/>\nMorning temperatures will be in the low- to mid-70s with afternoon highs each day in the mid-80s.<\/p>\n<h2>Tips from the National Weather Service for Driving in Fog<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Drive with lights on low beam.<\/li>\n<li>Reduce speed. Allow for plenty of room between you and other cars.<\/li>\n<li>Avoid crossing traffic unless absolutely necessary.<\/li>\n<li>Listen for traffic you cannot see.<\/li>\n<li>Use wipers and defroster as necessary for maximum vision.<\/li>\n<li>Be patient! Don&#8217;t pass lines of traffic.<\/li>\n<li>Unless absolutely necessary, don&#8217;t stop on any freeway or other heavily traveled road.<\/li>\n<li>If your car is disabled or you can\u2019t continue, pull well onto the shoulder and turn off lights. Move away from your vehicle.<\/li>\n<li>Consider postponing your trip until the fog clears.<\/li>\n<li>Be especially cautious in and near school zones. Watch for flashing yellow or red signals on school buses. Watch for children waiting for buses in the fog.<\/li>\n<li>Also, be aware that smoke from grass and forest fires along roadways can combine with fog to rapidly drop visibilities to zero.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>In conclusion, South Florida&#8217;s weather on Tuesday started with patchy fog, which is expected to clear up by 8 or 9 a.m. The rest of the day will be hot and humid, with feels-like temperatures in the 90s.
