The National Weather Service has issued a Coastal Flood Advisory, lasting through 6 p.m. Thursday, advising residents to be aware of flooding along shorelines and possible disruptions on roadways.
According to the National Weather Service, visibility could drop unexpectedly due to fog, increasing risks for motorists. Drivers should turn on low-beam headlights, keep safe distances, and reduce speed on fog-affected roads, particularly on bridges and in valleys. Extra caution is recommended for anyone traveling near coastal routes, where water levels are higher than usual, impacting safety and increasing the risk of road closures or delays.
The fog will start to clear up by Friday, bringing mostly sunny skies and highs reaching 84°F. As the weekend approaches, Corpus Christi can expect mild temperatures, with a chance of showers on Friday night and a few thunderstorms lingering through Saturday.
