.SYNOPSIS FOR THE MIDDLE TEXAS COASTAL WATERS...

Weak to moderate onshore flow over the next few days will become
weak at times during the night-time hours accompanied by a low to
moderate chance for showers. Swell heights are expected to
increase during the latter half of the week as an approaching cold
front and a developing tropical cyclone over the eastern Gulf of
Mexico will lead to a shift to northerly winds. This could result
in a brief period of Small Craft Advisory conditions Thursday and
Friday. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will also be possible.
Be sure to check Hurricanes.gov for the latest information on the
tropics.
