....DENSE FOG TO AFFECT THE COASTAL WATERS THIS MORNING...

...SLIGHT CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FOR THE SOUTHERN
COASTAL WATERS TODAY...

A shallow marine layer may result in dense fog across most of the
coastal waters through this morning (Saturday). There is also a
slight chance for isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms
for the waters south of the Channel Islands today.

Mariners should be prepared for abrupt visibility changes down to
one nautical mile or less. Reduce speeds and be on the lookout for
exposed rocks and other vessels, including large ships in the
shipping lanes. Use radar or GPS navigation if available, and
consider remaining in harbor if such equipment is unavailable.

Showers and thunderstorms can create localized dangerous ocean
conditions with choppy seas, gusty erratic winds, and the potential
for cloud to sea lightning. Boaters should closely monitor weather
conditions and avoid traveling near showers and thunderstorms.
