Warm and mostly cloudy for Wednesday

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — Happy Hump Day!

It’s a foggy start for us here in the Coastal Bend. A Dense Fog Advisory is in effect for parts of the Coastal Bend until 9 a.m. Later this morning, the fog should improve and mostly cloudy skies will linger. Despite the clouds, warm south-southeast winds will help temperatures return to the 80s today.

Enjoy the warmth because another cold front is on the way and will bring big changes! We’ll go from highs on Thursday in the 80s, to Friday morning lows in the 30s.

The cold front will arrive during our morning commute on Thursday, bringing a narrow window of opportunity for rainfall. Accumulations once again look to be modest, but anything helps! Once the front has passed and dry, gusty winds pick up around the area, we’ll be watching for an increased fire danger risk. A Fire Weather Watch will go into effect at 11 a.m. through 5 p.m. on Thursday.

Aside from chilly mornings on Friday and Saturday, afternoon highs will feel mild. Expect temps to slowly increase as we head into President’s Day Monday.

Have a great day!
