Subject: | NOAA Houston / Galveston Sea fog outlook for next week | Date: | Saturday, March 07, 2020 | Priority: | Normal | Notice: |
To all concerned
From: NWS Houston/Galveston <sr-hgx.nws@noaa.gov>

Subject: Sea fog outlook for next week
<span-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;font-weight:normal">
<span-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;font-weight:normal">
<span-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;font-weight:normal">A more prevalent onshore wind will resume overnight and persist for the next 7 days or so. This will bring a warm/moist airmass back over the cooler shelf waters...eventually
providing a favorable environment for sea fog development.
<span-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;font-weight:normal">
<span-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">When should it begin?
·
<span-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;font-weight:normal">Might see the beginning stages as early as Monday afternoon in the Gulf waters. The overall threat further increases going into Monday night and Tuesday
morning.
·
<span-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;font-weight:normal">Once it does develop it should follow the typical pattern with periods of improvement in the bays during the late morning and afternoon hours, then
roll back in at night.
<span-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">When should the threat end?
·
<span-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;font-weight:normal">The next front isn't forecast to move into the waters until late next weekend (Sunday March 15th or so), unfortunately. So dependent on several variables
described below, this could be a potential long lived hazard.
<span-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">How dense will the fog be? Variables and uncertainties?
·
<span-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;font-weight:normal">At this time we are more confident of the threat of visibilities below 2 miles in the Monday night through Wednesday timeframe.
·
<span-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;font-weight:normal">Water temperatures are currently 61-64° in the nearshore waters and bays. They should gradually warm as the week progresses. In general, this may
reduce the threat of long lived dense visibilities...maybe into a more prevalent 2-6 mile type fog/haze during the second half of the week.
·
<span-size:9.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;font-weight:normal">Small wind direction/speed changes and isolated showers could also alter fog characteristics. This is tough to accurately forecast beyond the first
few days.
