Texas – Headlights cut through thick, damp air along Coastal Bend roadways this morning as fog reduces visibility to under two miles, slowing drivers across Corpus Christi just after sunrise.
According to the National Weather Service, visibility at Corpus Christi International Airport dropped to 1.75 miles with humidity near 93 percent and light winds. Patchy fog lingers through mid-morning before clearing, giving way to a steady warm-up that builds through Thursday.
Across South Texas, conditions shift quickly. Skies brighten by late morning, and temperatures climb toward the upper 70s. Winds turn southeast and increase, with gusts reaching 20 mph by midday. Expect shifting crosswinds on SPID and I-37, especially on elevated ramps and bridges.
By Wednesday, the air feels distinctly warmer and breezier. Highs approach 79°F with gusts up to 22 mph. Dry air and sunshine dominate, but steady winds may impact high-profile vehicles and coastal travel. Plan for blowing dust in open areas west of the city.
Thursday brings similar warmth with stronger gusts near 23 mph. Power crews and utility lines could see minor strain from persistent winds. By Friday, temperatures peak near 80°F under full sun, signaling an early taste of summer along the coast.
For now, drivers should allow extra time this morning and use low beams in fog-prone areas like Highway 358 and FM 624. Conditions improve quickly, but winds will remain a factor through the workweek.
A broader pattern shift late week may bring stronger storms north of Texas, while South Texas stays warm and dry. More updates could follow as wind speeds fluctuate.
