.DISCUSSION...

Southeasterly onshore flow will persist this weekend into next
week. Beginning with today, we`ll see slightly drier air advect
north from the northern Gulf which will help with mixing this
afternoon dragging dewpoints down into the low to mid 60`s (and
some upper 50`s). This will be short lived, however, as deeper
moisture takes over Sunday into next week, with mainly
afternoon/evening scattered shower/storm chances returning. Rain
chances increase late-week as a front approaches the area.

Please provide an update on the probability and duration of fog
potential overnight into sunday morning...

Fog potential at least dense fog probs are very low. There is a chance of
some visibility reductions, but should remain at or above 5 miles.
