Environment Canada has released a special weather statement warning of fog across southern Saskatchewan on Friday.

The advisory covers the area from the southwest corner north to the Leader area, then stretches all the way east to the Moosomin area.

Regina, Swift Current, Moose Jaw, Estevan and Maple Creek are all affected.

“Travel is expected to be hazardous due to reduced visibility. If visibility is reduced while driving, turn on your lights and maintain a safe following distance,” the advisory reads.

The fog is expected to clear by mid-afternoon.
