.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1211 AM CST Mon Dec 8 2025

A breezy northerly wind has developed across South Texas this
evening in the wake of a passing cold front. A Wind Advisory remains
in effect through day break along the coast with winds decreasing
thereafter. As of writing, temperatures have already dropped into the
50s areawide, and are forecast to plummet into the 40s overnight
under mostly clear skies.

Temperatures will remain on the cooler side during the day today
with highs generally in the 60s under mostly sunny skies and a light
northeasterly wind. Tonight will be colder with overnight lows
ranging from the mid 30s over portions of the Coastal Plains to
the mid 40s along the coast. A warming trend will then follow
Tuesday through late week with highs reaching the upper 70s to low
80s daily.

Models are still diverging in regards to the timing of the next
frontal passage. Some hint at a trough on Wednesday shifting our
winds around with a surge in high pressure and then a boundary late
week into the weekend. Either way, dry conditions will generally
persist inland through the end of the cycle, with a few
showers/storms late week over the marine zones.

.AVIATION...
(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 1211 AM CST Mon Dec 8 2025

VFR conditions will prevail through the forecast across South Texas
under mostly clear skies. Northerly winds early on gusting to 20-30
knots over the coastal sites (ALI/CRP/VCT) will diminish to around a
10-12 knot sustained wind by 12Z. Winds will remain light through
the day out of the northeast. No chances for precipitation.

.MARINE...
Issued at 1211 AM CST Mon Dec 8 2025

A Small Craft Advisory remains in effect through late morning
today in the wake of a cold front. Northerly winds will gradually
shift southeast to south by Tuesday becoming gentle to moderate
once again. Another cold front is expected by the end of the week
along with a 20-30% chance of showers and thunderstorms.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 1211 AM CST Mon Dec 8 2025

Minimum relative humidity values will dip below 30% daily through
late week. However, due to low ERC and generally weak to moderate
winds, confidence is low for any elevated fire weather conditions.
