Sea fog is developing as low stratus clouds settle to the ground
from the coast and intracoastal waters towards I-95 with locations
at Craig airfield, Fernandina Beach, and Mayport reporting visibility
around 1 mile. The sea fog will occasionally reduce visibilities to
under 1 mile through sunset and the early evening hours. Dense sea fog
will likely expand inland during the early to mid evening hours, when
Dense Fog Advisories will likely be re-issued for all of coastal
southeast Georgia and coastal northeast Florida.
Motorists should remain alert for sudden changes in visibility
this afternoon, particularly along coastal roads such as A-1A in
northeast Florida and U.S. Highway 17 in southeast Georgia. If
you encounter sea fog while driving in these coastal locations
this afternoon, slow down and leave extra distance ahead of you in
case a sudden stop is needed.

Coastal Waters Forecast for Northeast Florida/Southeast Georgia
National Weather Service Jacksonville FL
Atlantic Coastal Waters from Altamaha Sound GA to Flagler Beach FL out to 60 nm. Seas are provided as a range of the average height of the highest 1/3 of the waves, along with the occasional height of the average highest 1/10 of the waves. Dense sea fog will continue through Wednesday morning across the southeast Georgia waters and also for the near shore waters south to Flagler Beach tonight through the morning hours on Wednesday. A coastal trough will otherwise remain located over local waters as strong high pressure centered off the New England coast wedges down the southeastern seaboard this afternoon, creating breezy onshore winds. Elevated seas will persist for the offshore waters adjacent to northeast Florida during the next few days. Atlantic high pressure will then become centered near Bermuda by Wednesday afternoon, creating prevailing southeasterly winds later this week through the weekend. Isolated to widely scattered showers will be possible beginning on Thursday, especially across the northeast Florida waters. .GULF STREAM.
