A plane taking off at San Diego International Airport in 2020
Dozens of flights were experiencing delays Friday at the San Diego International Airport.
According to the flight tracking tool FlightAware, more than 160 flights were delayed to and from the airport as of noon. The delays were affecting all airlines, with Spirit, Horizon and Fronteir being hit the hardest.
The cause for the delays was not yet known but San Diego's coastline was socked in by a deep marine layer Friday morning, which brought mist and drizzle to the region, NBC 7 Meteorologist Brooke Martell said. Cloudy skies could clear by the afternoon, but a similar weather pattern was expected throughout the weekend.
Weather conditions in other parts of the country may also be creating delays across the country, according to the FAA.

Scores of flights were also delayed last week, mostly affecting Southwest Airlines, which was attributed to computer issues.
