AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CORPUS CHRISTI TX 1249 AM CDT WED OCT 1 2014 .DISCUSSION...UPDATED FOR 06Z AVIATION. && .AVIATION...MAJOR CONCERN THIS PERIOD IS FOG POTENTIAL. LIGHT WINDS AND GENERALLY CLEAR SKIES AT THE SURFACE...COUPLED WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE LOW TO MID 70S ACROSS THE REGION...SHOULD ALLOW FOR THE FORMATION OF FOG PARTICULARLY OVER INLAND AREAS. THE DENSITY OF THE FOG IS IN QUESTION...BUT AM GENERALLY EXPECTING THE THICKEST FOG TO BE OVER KALI AND KVCT. DIDNT GO LOWER THAN MVFR VIS AT KCRP. TEMPO IFR FOR CIGS AT KLRD AND TEMPO IFR FOR VIS AT KALI. KVCT WAS ONLY TERMINAL FOR WHICH I INCLUDED PREVAILING IFR BASED ON YESTERDAY'S DENSE FOG AND VISIBILITIES ALREADY STARTING TO SHOW SIGNS OF DROPPING. AFTER SUNRISE CONDITIONS IMPROVE. THERE IS A POSSIBILITY OF SOME SHEAR ISSUES TOMORROW NIGHT OVER MUCH OF SOUTH TEXAS DUE TO LLJ DEVELOPMENT...BUT HAVE NOT INCLUDED A MENTION OF THIS IN THE TAFS DUE TO LAPSE RATES BEING FAVORABLE FOR DOWNWARD MIXING...WHICH SHOULD ALSO KEEP FOG CHANCES DOWN. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
