"It's kind of hit or miss during the off-season," said Shaheen.

Good morning Central Coast!Today will be warm, just like we experienced yesterday, but a notable change is that many communities will see some fog, in most cases this morning, but it could linger in some places. There is a Dense Fog advisory in effect through 9am this morning. It's kind of difficult to see at a quick glance, but this lighter gray region is where you could see an impact. Estimates are showing visibility could be as low as a quarter mile or less if you are in the dense fog.
