Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA localized superfog event occurred along Interstate 95 near Edgewater in Volusia County. Residual smoke from a nearby prescribed burn from the previous day combined with fog to create near-zero visibility conditions. This resulted in five separate accidents on both travel lanes of the Interstate that involved 17 vehicles at, and just south of mile marker 244. There were three fatalities and 10 injuries.
