Foggy Fall Conditions Pose Risks in Tennessee

Foggy Fall Conditions Pose Risks in Tennessee

Fall in Tennessee is the foggiest time of the year, with longer nights and occasional humid conditions creating ideal conditions for radiation fog. During autumn 2025, Nashville experienced fog or mist on 36 days, with visibility dropping to 1/4 mile or less on six occasions. This year, September has been less foggy due to unusually hot and dry weather, but rain expected later this week could increase ground moisture and enhance fog formation in early October. Drivers and pedestrians should remain vigilant as foggy conditions can significantly reduce visibility, especially during early mornings.
