Fog affects flights at airports across the Northcentral Wisconsin

NORTHCENTRAL WISCONSIN - The dense fog made it difficult for drivers the past few days. Airports across the Northwoods barely saw any flights coming in or taking off.

The airport directors in Merrill and Eagle River say they haven't seen any planes in a couple of days.

The ceiling and visibility is too low for planes to take off or land. Central Wisconsin Airport Director Tony Yaron says visibility needs to be at least half a mile for pilots to take off.
