VANCOUVER – A fog advisory that covered much of Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley has been lifted by Environment Canada.

The thick blanket of fog that left near-zero visibility in some areas was created by a ridge of high pressure over parts of southern B.C.

Environment Canada cautions that the fog could return by Tuesday evening.

Environment Canada has issued advisories for other parts of the province, including a freezing rain warning for the south Peace River region, advising of slippery conditions through Wednesday.
