.SYNOPSIS FOR THE MIDDLE TEXAS COASTAL WATERS...

Rain chances will taper off tonight before low rain chances return
tomorrow and Wednesday. Moderate to fresh (BF 4-5) southerly winds
will persist the remainder of the night before easing up on Tuesday,
becoming light to gentle (BF 2-3), before a strong front moves
offshore midweek. Behind this front, winds will shift to the north-
northeast and strengthen back to moderate to fresh (BF 4-5) with
intermittent strong (BF 6) gusts. This pattern is expected to hold
through Friday, after which onshore flow returns. Confidence
decreases heading into the weekend, but increasing moisture
associated with the renewed onshore flow and an approaching upper-
level disturbance may bring the next chance for rain along with
fresh to strong (BF 5-6) southeasterly winds.
