Texas coastal air feels thick and damp this morning, with low clouds hanging over Corpus Christi and patches of fog slowing the first wave of traffic along SPID and I-37. Temperatures sit in the mid-60s after sunrise, but the air will warm quickly under filtered sun.
According to the National Weather Service in Corpus Christi, highs climb to 82 degrees today with south winds shifting southeast at 10 to 14 mph. Areas of fog may linger through mid-morning, especially near the bays and inland waterways, briefly reducing visibility for drivers crossing the Harbor Bridge.
By Friday, sea fog redevelops early before skies turn partly sunny and highs reach the upper 70s. East winds stay light, but moisture increases ahead of a cold front edging toward the Gulf Coast. That boundary is expected to stall nearby this weekend, triggering scattered showers and thunderstorms from Saturday into Sunday.
Rain totals between 1 and 2 inches are possible across parts of South Texas through Saturday night. Wet pavement and ponding could slow travel on I-37 and Highway 181. Plan extra time if you are heading out this weekend.
Saturday and Sunday hold in the mid to upper 70s with gusty southeast winds at times. Nights stay mild in the upper 60s. While severe weather is not expected, brief downpours could reduce visibility quickly.
Looking ahead to early March, drier air returns Monday with mostly sunny skies and highs near 78. The 6–10 day outlook favors above-normal temperatures, signaling stronger spring warmth building into next week.
