.SYNOPSIS FOR THE MIDDLE TEXAS COASTAL WATERS...

Light to moderate (BF 2-4) south-southeasterly winds will
continue through Saturday night. With onshore flow resulting in
elevated moisture, sea fog potential increases as we head into the
weekend with the best chances of fog being during the overnight
and morning hours across the bays and nearshore waters. Dense fog with
visibilities less than 1NM is possible. Rain chances remain next
to none through the remainder of today before a low to medium
chance (20-60%) of rain returns on Saturday ahead of our next
frontal passage. In the wake of our next front on Sunday, winds
will shift to the northeast and strengthen to become fresh to
strong (BF 5-6). This wind setup will persist through Monday
morning before settling back down to gentle to moderate levels (BF
3-4) and once again shifting into an onshore flow pattern.
