As the New Orleans Metro area and surrounding parishes will be under another dense fog advisory this evening (November 8, 2023) into the morning hours tomorrow (November 9, 2023), the NOPD is working with multiple local, area and state entities to prepare for low visibility conditions. This includes areas that have seen a combination of marsh fire smoke and fog in recent days, in particular in the eastern area of New Orleans.
