.SYNOPSIS FOR THE MIDDLE TEXAS COASTAL WATERS...

Weak to moderate onshore flow is expected to continue through the
weekend along with low chances for showers and thunderstorms.
The combination of light winds and sufficient low level moisture
may lead to tropical funnel development both this morning and
Sunday morning. Most of these funnel clouds will be short lived
and typically do not touch the ground. However, you should be
prepared to seek shelter in the event a funnel does reach the
ground. The chances for showers and thunderstorms will increase
this weekend to 30-60% next week as a cold front stalls north of
the area. Onshore flow is expected to increase to moderate by mid
week.
