Good morning from the ABC Action News team.

All this dense fog might have you feeling like you woke up in a Halloween movie today. This will become a common sight over the next few mornings, at least for most areas. But as far as Monday goes, don't stress too much—our mets say it's supposed to clear up past 9 a.m. Just make sure you use extra caution on the roads.
