Marine Weather and Tide Forecast for Goulding, FL

UPDATE
Issued at 619 AM CST Sat Feb 28 2026

Latest night fog satellite product and marine observation platforms are showing areas of dense fog occurring across the western half of Mobile Bay into the eastern portion of the Mississippi Sound. This fog is the result of light north winds this morning over coastal Alabama advecting the radiational fog south over these marine areas. This dense fog will dissipate through the mid-morning hours, and a marine Dense Fog Advisory will remains in effect until 10am. /22

DISCUSSION
Issued at 1016 PM CST Fri Feb 27 2026

The main forecasting headache as we head through the weekend will be patchy to areas of dense fog that develop each night, lingering into the early morning hours. Light winds, clear skies, and ample surface cooling will allow for fog development over the next few hours across much of southwest Alabama into south-central Alabama and the Florida Panhandle. This fog will likely reduce visibility at times below a quarter of a mile, necessitating a dense fog advisory with this forecast package. Dense fog will be most likely between midnight and 7am when the advisory goes into effect. Fog will again be possible late Saturday night into Sunday morning with a similar overall setup, so I would not be surprised if another night of dense fog occurs again for much of the area.

Dry weather conditions will prevail otherwise throughout the weekend into next week. Anomalously warm weather will be here to stay for the foreseeable future as highs stay in the middle to upper 70's this weekend before returning to lower and middle 80's for next week. Lows will be in the middle 40's to lower 50's this weekend before returning back to middle 50's to lower 60's mid to late next week. A Low risk of rip currents today will continue through Monday, becoming a High risk for strong rip currents once again Tuesday and at least a Moderate risk continuing into Wednesday. MM/25
