| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | Plenty of low level moisture and stable conditions under high pressure allowed dense fog to form each night and morning from January 11 to 16, 2015. In the days prior to this, there had been patchy fog, but it became more widespread throughout the San Joaquin Valley after a weak weather disturbance brought rain across Kern county on the January 10-11. ||The dense fog formed in Kings and Tulare counties in the evening of January 11, then spread into Fresno, Madera, and Merced counties as well as south into Kern county by early morning on January 12. Visibilities dropped to less than 500 feet in many areas. The fog lifted in most areas by noon on January 12. Dense fog also developed on parts of the Kern county desert areas near Edwards AFB and Ridgecrest. ||The fog quickly redeveloped in the early evening of January 12 and continue through the morning of January 13 with widespread visibilities below 1/4 mile and many areas reporting visibility below 800 feet. The fog cleared between 10 AM and noon. ||The worst of the fog occurred on January 14, with dense fog developing around midnight, but not clearing until nearly 2 pm. There were numerous school bus delays due to the dense fog and California Highway Patrol was pacing traffic on area highways. A major traffic accident occurred in Visalia involving three vehicles and resulting in major injuries to two people. ||The dense fog redeveloped on the evening of January 14 and continue through noon on January 15. It then quickly redeveloped early evening on the 15th, but lifted above 1/4 mile by 3 am on the 16th as a weak disturbance moving by to the north helped to lift the fog into a stratus deck. |
