Freezing fog is still possible across the area tonight, particularly for central and eastern Virginia away from the immediate coast. Should freezing fog occur, a light glaze of ice could form on elevated surfaces, such as bridges and overpasses.

It's already time to "fall back!" ๐ โฐ Daylight Saving Time ends this weekend at 2am on Sunday November 2. This is also a great time to check/change the batteries in your smoke detectors and check your carbon monoxide detectors.
