Extended Forecast

With southerly winds at 15-20 mph across much of the area and relative humidity values dropping to as low as 25% this afternoon, a Fire Danger Statement has been issued for much of South Texas through 7PM. Make sure to do your part to reduce sparks.

With surface high pressure moving off to the Southeast US, winds will turn more southerly, increasing this afternoon and persisting through Thursday morning. For this reason, a Small Craft Advisory has been issued from 4 PM through Thursday morning.

Drier air remaining in place across the area will allow temperatures to warm up to near-normal values. Meanwhile, a breezy southeast wind will elevate the fire risk.

Southeast winds will be increasing throughout the day with the surf increasing in strength tonight. While the rip current risk is low, this does not mean there is no risk. This is especially true near jetties, piers, etc.

Windy conditions from the afternoon will continue through the evening. Temperatures will drop to the 50s across the inland coastal plains and in the 60s closer to the coast.

Breezy conditions with low afternoon RH values will keep the fire risk elevated through Thursday, which is when many locations have the chance of breaking record high temps. By Friday, a weak frontal system will bring brief relief to afternoon high temps Friday, but remaining warm through the weekend.
