Dense fog settled into the Mississippi Delta and the area surrounding the Helena-West Helena bridge overnight.
Since temperatures are below freezing and fog is made up of water droplets, freezing fog could have led to patches of ice along the bridge. It's unclear if that was the cause of the crash.
