including Galveston and Matagorda Bays.

Lowering winds and decreasing seas can be expected though
Tuesday. Generally moderate onshore flow and somewhat elevated
seas are anticipated this week and into the start of the weekend.
Caution flags might occasionally be needed during periods of
higher winds, especially Wednesday night into Thursday. Periods
of unsettled weather are possible, though better shower and
thunderstorm chances should be situated a bit further inland for
much of the forecast period as the next cold stays away from the
