.SYNOPSIS FOR THE MIDDLE TEXAS COASTAL WATERS...

A generally weak onshore flow will persist through the middle of the
week accompanied by a low to moderate chance for showers. Flow will
become weak to moderate Wednesday and then moderate as it shifts
northerly in response to a cold front Thursday. This may result in
brief periods of Small Craft Advisory conditions. Rain chances then
taper off behind the front with no mentionable PoP`s the remainder
of the week. A developing tropical cyclone is forecast to enter into
the southeastern Gulf of Mexico over the coming days and will result
in increasing swells through the end of the week. Please visit
