I'm in Galveston, TX until tomorrow. Galveston is an island outside of Houston, right on the Gulf. It's been covered in fog for the three days that I've been here. Apparently, this is pretty common. A friend of mine, Chris, explained to me that this is their version of lake affect snow. Normally the winds blow form the south off the coast, but in the winter, the water’s cooler and when it blows in over the warmer land, you get fog. Normally it burns off by 10 and it gets hot. When it’s moderately cool, it stays around for days. You're smarter for knowing all that now.
