Environment Canada issued a fog advisory for Stratford, Ontario, on Saturday, February 14, 2026, warning of hazardous travel conditions throughout the early morning. The weather alert notes that visibility will be near-zero in some spots, creating difficult driving for residents and delivery drivers in Stratford, Mitchell, and Southern Perth County.
The advisory from Environment Canada was released at 6:21 AM and is expected to stay in place until later this morning. To stay safe on the roads, people should slow down, turn on their vehicle lights, and keep plenty of space between themselves and other cars.
This weather event comes after a period of changing winter temperatures where the Upper Thames River Conservation Authority had to monitor rising water levels in January. While local rivers are currently stable, officials are keeping an eye on how temperature shifts impact the community.
Morning travelers are encouraged to leave early and allow extra time for their trips. Local authorities suggest being particularly careful on rural roads where the thick fog can make it very hard to see the road ahead.
