.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1255 PM CST Mon Nov 10 2025
Elevated to critical fire weather concerns remains the primary
concern over South Texas this afternoon as relative humidity has
dropped to 15-30% across the entire area. Fortunately, the winds
aren`t as strong limiting the fire weather threat. Although the
winds shift southerly tomorrow (Tuesday), minimum relative
humidity will still fall below 30% over the western Brush Country
and winds gusting over 20 mph will promote critical fire weather
conditions. Therefore, a Red Flag Warning has been issued for
McMullen, Duval, La Salle, and Webb Counties from 10 AM to 6 PM
Tuesday. Elevated fire weather conditions over the Brush Country
will likely develop Wednesday afternoon before enough moisture
builds into the region to negate fire weather concerns through the
upcoming weekend.
Models have trended slightly warmer for Tuesday morning low
temperatures. Chances for any freezing temperatures have dropped
to near 0 and the medium to high (40-70%) chance for lows in the
30s are very much limited to the northern counties stretching from
La Salle to Victoria. Clear skies, calm winds (much calmer than
this morning), and dry air will allow for efficient radiational
cooling. Decided to mix in NBM and CONSShort for temperatures
through Tuesday.
Warming trend will dominate Wednesday through Saturday with highs
well into the 80s to around 90 west and lows in the mid to upper
60s. A Pacific cold front is on track to pass through South Texas
west to each early next week, either Sunday or Monday. There is a
low (20-40%) chance of showers and thunderstorms this weekend,
mainly over the Victoria Crossroads. Not as much cold air
advection given the Pacific source but drier air will allow for
cooler lows in the 50s and highs limited to the low-mid 80s given
the offshore flow.

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1255 PM CST Mon Nov 10 2025
VFR conditions will prevail across South Texas through 18Z Tuesday
with a wind-driven forecast. North to northeasterly winds will
generally range from 5-15 knots this afternoon before decreasing
below 5 knots becoming variable overnight into the early morning
hours Tuesday. Southerly flow returns by mid-late morning Tuesday,
increasing winds to around 10-15 knots. No chances for rain or
fog under mostly clear skies.
&&
.MARINE...
Issued at 1255 PM CST Mon Nov 10 2025
Winds have diminished below 20 knots for the bays and therefore
the Small Craft Advisory has been cancelled. The Small Craft
Advisory remains in effect for the open waters for northerly winds
around 20 knots and seas over 6 feet. Conditions are expected to
improve by this evening, with winds below 20 knots and seas
subsiding below 6 feet. Gentle to moderate (BF 3-4) onshore flow
returns Tuesday, strengthening to a south to southeasterly fresh
to strong breeze (BF 5-6) Tuesday night through Wednesday night.
Moderate to fresh breeze will follow to close out the work week.
South to southeasterly flow will strengthen to a strong breeze
again this weekend, in advance of an Pacific cold front that will
shift winds northwesterly in the wake.

.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 1255 PM CST Mon Nov 10 2025
Elevated to critical fire weather conditions will continue each
afternoon through Wednesday, with worst conditions over the Brush
Country. Winds strengthen slightly Tuesday and with minimum relative
humidity falling below 30%, a Red Flag Warning has been issued for
McMullen, La Salle, Webb, and Duval counties for Tuesday from 10 AM
to 6 PM CST. Elsewhere towards the inland coastal county portions, a
Fire Danger Statement has been issued. Another elevated fire weather
day is expected over the Brush Country on Wednesday. Enough moisture
will return by the latter half of the week to negate fire weather
concerns.
