I rolled out, the fog rolled in...

That pretty much sums up the morning. Rolling out of the driveway on my bicycle for the commute to work I had no sooner made the short distance to the front gate of our subdivision when I felt like fog was literally forming around me.

As I prepared to make my left turn onto busy Blanco Road, I was feeling an increasing amount of moisture on my face and saw that my headlamp beam was clouded with rain droplets.

Rain.

Fog.

Both?

I turned around.

As I pulled up the weather again, the following had just been issued:

Statement as of 5:44 AM CST on January 26, 2009

... Dense fog advisory in effect until 10 am CST this morning...

The National Weather Service in Austin/San Antonio has issued a
dense fog advisory... which is in effect until 10 am CST this
morning.

Visibilities are less than one half mile in dense fog across most
of the Escarpment and parts of The Hill Country. Also drizzle
induced fog has lowered visibilities to less than 1/2 mile along
the Interstate 35 corridor.

A dense fog advisory means visibilities will frequently be
reduced to less than one quarter mile. If driving... slow down...
use your headlights... and leave plenty of distance ahead of you.

Despite being slightly disappointed with this outcome I knew, without a doubt, that I had made the right decision.
