Dense Fog Advisory
Issued by the National Weather Service at 3:53 am CST on March 11, 2010


... Dense fog advisory remains in effect until 8 am CST this
morning...

Dense sea fog will persist along the coast early this morning.
The sea fog was reducing visibilities to 1/4 mile or less near
Corpus Christi... Port Aransas... Rockport... and north to Port
Lavaca.

This dense fog will persist through the early morning hours.
A weak trough is expected to move offshore shortly after sunrise.
This is expected to end the threat for dense fog as offshore
winds bring drier air into the region.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

A dense fog advisory means that fog has reduced visibilities to
one-quarter of a mile or less for 2 or more hours.
