Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Houston/Galveston TX
351 PM CST Sun Feb 3 2019

.DISCUSSION...
Not a lot of changes with the overall forecast as this warm/moist 
airmass lingers over SE TX the next several days. Periods of iso-
lated/scattered showers (via embedded disturbances in the SW flow
aloft) will be interspersed with periods of foggy/drizzly weather.
Coastal locations should see a bit more of the fog (as conditions
there remain favorable for the continued development of sea fog).

Models appear to be coming into a slightly more consistent place-
ment/timing with respect to the next upper trof moving across the
Rockies. This system is still progged to drag a cold front across
the area Thurs afternoon...reaching the coast just before sunset.
Much colder temperatures (highs in the lower 50s/lows in the mid-
dle to upper 30s) are on tap for Fri, then slowly warming through
the weekend. 41

.MARINE...
Sea fog should continue for much of the upper Texas coast and bays 
tonight into Monday. A marine weather statement will highlight the 
fog threat overnight until visibility drops to advisory levels. 
Dense fog advisories may be possible tonight into tomorrow with 
increased moisture already in place. Surface dewpoints are now in 
the mid to upper 60s while water temperatures remain in the upper 
50s at best. Winds may be more from the south on Monday which may 
help limit the development of sea fog later in the day and into 
Tuesday. Still the pattern will be supportive of sea fog through at 
least Wednesday or Thursday given the higher moisture and colder 
waters in place.

Sea fog threat will likely decrease Wednesday and Thursday as 
stronger winds should increase mixing and more likely to dissipate 
fog. A cold front is looking more likely to push off the coast 
Thursday night with northerly winds and drier air on Friday.
