(06Z TAF Issuance) Issued at 1030 PM CST Fri Jan 9 2026 Main focus on this set of TAFs is to align forecast with reality as broken line of storms moves across SE TX. CLL is clear, and the first to transition into being aimed at capturing the trend towards strengthening northwesterly winds late tonight and through the day Saturday. UTS seeing storms at 0430Z and will be the next to join CLL. Toplines for the Houston metro terminals are focused on the impending arrival of BKN TSRA line, followed by the coastal terminals which are currently dealing with sea fog impact. Gusty winds in the 25-30kt range should carry with us through the day Saturday, with gusts beginning to drop off with sunset, and winds only slowly diminishing into the evening. && .MARINE... Issued at 1230 AM CST Sat Jan 10 2026 The front is nearing the coast this morning, with showers and thunderstorms occurring out ahead of the boundary. Some of these storms could produce gusty winds. A wind shift will follow in the wake of the front with winds increasing out of the north. This has prompted a Small Craft Advisory across all the coastal waters through noon Sunday. Moderate to strong northerly winds and building seas are expected Saturday and will gradually diminish Sunday. Light onshore flow will prevail later in the weekend through early next week before another cold front expected around mid-week. Bailey && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
