GMZ200-251915- 1206 AM CST Tue Nov 25 2025 .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. $$ GMZ236-237-251915- Copano, Aransas, and Redfish Bays- San Antonio, Mesquite, and Espiritu Santo Bays- 1206 AM CST Tue Nov 25 2025 .TODAY...West winds 5 to 10 knots, becoming east late.
