.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1041 PM CDT Sat Oct 11 2025

An upper level ridge looks to remain in place over the central US
through mid week, with broad subsidence and dry air aloft
generally supporting rain free conditions across Deep South Texas.
A week upper level trough moving through the southern periphery
of the ridge may briefly increase forcing and mid level moisture
Tuesday into Wednesday. This will provide a low (30%) chance for
isolated showers and thunderstorms along the sea breeze Tuesday
afternoon.

Otherwise, warm temperatures are expected through the period,
with highs in the upper 80s to low 90s this weekend climbing to
the upper 90s by the end of the week. The combination of long
period swell and higher astronomical tides will lead to minor
coastal flooding around high tide and increased rip current
strength for the next couple days.
