.SYNOPSIS FOR THE MIDDLE TEXAS COASTAL WATERS...

Weak to moderate onshore flow will persist through the remainder
of the weekend. Moderate to strong onshore flow will develop
Monday into Tuesday, then is expected to become strong by mid week
with advisory conditions possible. The potential development of a
tropical disturbance in the southwestern Gulf of Mexico could
increase wave heights up to 8-10 feet across the offshore Texas
coastal waters. The National Hurricane Center has given this
disturbance a medium 50% chance of tropical cyclone development in
the next 7 days. Regardless of development, deep moisture is
expected to move into the area leading to a medium to high
(50-90%) chance of showers and thunderstorms by mid week.
