Heavy Fog Covers Seattle, Vancouver and Other Pacific Northwest Cities




Coastal cities in the Pacific Northwest have been dealing with rounds of heavy fog all week long. The fog has been so relentless, locals are calling it 'Fogmaggedon' and 'Fogtober.'
According to The Weather Channel meteorologist Tom Moore, Thursday marked six straight days of persistent, heavy fog for Seattle. Moore says the fog could hang around through the weekend.

The weather has caused delays throughout the week at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. The heavy fog has also been tough on marine traffic. King5.com reports the Washington state ferry MV Cahtlamet came close to colliding with a 63-foot fishing boat Thursday morning.
The Storify below captures some of the best photos we could find that show the fog in Seattle as well as just north of the border in Vancouver, Canada.
