Winds and seas have subsided slightly but still remain elevated. Northeast winds of 20 to 25 knots and seas of 6-9 feet will persist through the rest of the afternoon and evening hours, so a Small Craft Advisory will be in effect until midnight tonight. It is highly recommended that mariners without the proper experience avoid navigating in these conditions.
Expect a breezy day on the beach today with mostly sunny skies. Heavy surf conditions today will improve overnight. While the rip current risk is low, this does not mean there is no risk. This is especially true near jetties, piers, etc.
Mostly clear skies and light winds will allow for effective radiational cooling tonight. Lows will be below-normal ranging from the mid 30s across the Victoria Crossroads to the upper 40s along the coast/Rio Grande Plains.
While we see a cool start to the work week, temperatures will climb through Thursday, while fire weather conditions remains elevated. Another dry cold front moves through on Friday.
