nautical miles including Galveston and Matagorda Bays

901 AM CST Sat Feb 3 2018

while turning more southeasterly as a warm front pushes north into

Saturday night into Sunday morning allowing for sea fog to develop

mainly along the coast and in the bays...possibly lingering into

early next week.
