Treasure Valley commuters navigated dense fog Friday morning, and more fog could be on the way for early Sunday.
A National Weather Service Boise forecaster just happened to climb Table Rock as the fog rolled through the eastern part of the valley. The forecaster pulled out his iPhone and captured a neat perspective on Friday morning's fog.

Weather service forecaster Chuck Redman says high-pressure cold air has a tendency to pool near Ontario, and when northerly winds sweep through the area, it funnels that dense fog through the Treasure Valley.
Redman says that high pressure will be back Sunday morning, bringing with it more fog.
If you noticed longer wait times at stoplights this morning, there's a reason for it. As we told you earlier this year, stoplights have a hard time seeing in dense fog, too.
