.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. Winds will shift north later this
week and increase to moderate in response to a cold front and a
developing tropical cyclone in the southeastern Gulf. While not
expected to directly affect the Texas coast, this could lead to
brief Small Craft Advisory conditions and increased swells late
this week. There is low to moderate chance of showers and
thunderstorms Wednesday through Thursday. Please visit
hurricanes.gov for more information on tropical cyclone
development.
