The NWS explained the cause of the tsunami-looking fog bank by saying
that warm air blowing off comparatively cold ocean waters caused the
air to cool rapidly and condense, forming the fog just offshore.
The winds blowing onshore, where temperatures were warmer, caused the
fog bank to have trouble moving inland, with clear skies observed on
satellite imagery just west of the beaches, while thunderstorms were
forming farther inland.
