Free Republic use to be the go to place for breaking news events like this.

The Facebook post that I saw tonight noted: "Heavy fog was reported in the area this morning that mixed with smoke from a controlled burn." I originally, thought it referred to a controlled burn of the cars/trucks in the accident. After a second read, I see it refers to the conditions that may have been factors in the accident.

I've seen those fog banks on I-75 and I-4 before. They sneak up on you!

I was in Orlando last week. Early morning fog was dense to say the least

Why did I know, without even reading the article, that the area of highway in question would have been either I-95 between St. Augustine and Daytona Beach, or I-4 between Daytona and Sanford? For some reason, those consistently seem to be the most dangerous/problematic stretches of interstate in Florida.

I have one rule about driving in dense fog. Just don’t do it. Check weather reports, traffic cams, etc. before leaving. If the fog is getting worse, put your flashers on and take the next exit or turn into the next parking area to wait it out at a gas station/ convenience store.
