Long Term
(Tuesday night through Sunday) Issued at 209am CDT Monday April 29 2024

The scenario of fronts moving as far east as Dallas and stalling only to retrograde will continue. This doesn't change a lot locally for much of the upcoming week, but there is a possibility that this front gets oriented east/west and stalls near our area by the end of the week. We will need to see how this plays out through the week but it could bring another good chance of rain to the area.

Marine
Issued at 209am CDT Monday April 29 2024

Strong SE winds(20-25kt) will begin to weaken today over all marine areas. Small craft advisories will be lowered by mid morning and caution statements will take their place. Winds should continue to ease tonight into Tuesday falling to around the 5-10kt range. Winds will remain out of the SE through this fcast but should remain around 10kt for the most part.
