875 FXUS64 KHGX 081108 AFDHGX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Houston/Galveston TX 608 AM CDT Tue Jul 8 2025 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Issued at 1202 AM CDT Tue Jul 8 2025 - Scattered to widespread showers and thunderstorms are expected each day through this week. - Isolated strong thunderstorms will lead to gusty winds and localized downpours. If more than one of these storms moves over the same area, or happens to fall over an area of poor drainage, then minor street flooding/ponding will be possible. - Near seasonal temperatures will persist, but seasonal this time of year is still hot. Make sure to take breaks if working outside and stay hydrated. Fowler && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 1202 AM CDT Tue Jul 8 2025 Weak troughing aloft, daytime heating, and PWATs near 2" will lead to continued daily rain chances through at least Thursday, but possibly beyond. What we experienced earlier today (showers and storms popping up along the coast in the morning, then spreading inland through the day with isolated downpours) will be the template through the week with each day having a fairly similar set-up. Not everyone will get rainfall every day, but where the rain falls it could be heavy (a very realistic scenario is you have no rain through the day, but your neighbors just a few streets over could see an inch or two). Coverage of the showers and thunderstorms may be less starting on Friday as the upper-level trough begins to weaken and PWATs lower slightly, but some guidance continues the upper-level troughing through the weekend. Temperatures through the week will be fairly seasonal, but seasonal in July is still quite warm. Highs will be in the low to mid 90s inland through Wednesday, then some spots possible reaching the upper 90s by the weekend as rain chances diminish. Overnight lows will be in the mid to upper 70s inland, and low 80s along the coast. Fowler && .AVIATION... (12Z TAF Issuance) Issued at 525 AM CDT Tue Jul 8 2025 Few stray MVFR cigs early today should clear later this morning. Scattered showers/thunderstorms will be possible throughout the daytime, beginning along the coast early in the day with activity shifting northward later in the afternoon/evening. Rain chances taper off into the evening with light winds expected overnight once again. A few stray MVFR CIGS will be possible again Wednesday morning, mainly ares north/northwest of the city such as KCLL/KUTS. 03 && .MARINE... Issued at 1202 AM CDT Tue Jul 8 2025 It will be a bit of a rinse and repeat pattern this week with shower and thunderstorms possible each day. Some isolated showers will develop near daybreak over the Gulf waters, then scattered showers and thunderstorms expanding into the Bays during the late mornings and afternoons. Light to moderate winds and low seas are expected through Wednesday with occasionally higher gusts up to 15 to 20 knots are possible. Winds and seas may increase towards the end of the week.
