..DENSE SEA FOG LIKELY OVERNIGHT
POCKETS OF SEA FOG CONTINUE ACROSS THE BEACHES AND PORTIONS OF THE
LOWER BAYS THIS AFTERNOON. WHILE SOME DRIER AIR MAY INTRUDE INTO
PORTIONS OF GALVESTON BAY DURING THE DAYTIME, A WALL OF DENSE FOG
AND DEEP MOISTURE LINGERS OFFSHORE. WITH WINDS ALREADY SHIFTING
EAST SOONER THAN EXPECTED, CONFIDENCE IS GROWING IN DEEPER
MOISTURE RETURNING OVERNIGHT INTO EARLY SATURDAY MORNING. THIS
SHOULD RESULT IN PATCHES TO AREAS OF FOG SPREADING INTO THE UPPER
BAYS AS THE NIGHT PROGRESSES. MODELS SUGGEST THAT THIS SEA FOG
SHOULD START CREEPING NORTH AFTER SUNSET, LATER ENGULFING THE
UPPER PORTION OF GALVESTON BAY NEAR MORGANS POINT BY AROUND
MIDNIGHT. MARINERS SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR REDUCED VISIBILITY.
