Long Term
(Thursday through next Tuesday) Issued at 243pm CDT Tuesday May 7 2024

Hot temperatures will continue to be the main concern for the start of the long term period. As the dryline over Central Texas shifts further east Thursday temperatures will again rise into the triple digits. Higher dewpoints east of the dryline will likely support heat indices in the 111-115 range roughly along and east of I-69C Thursday afternoon.

A passing upper level shortwave looks to support the passage of a cold front Thursday night into Friday. This will likely bring more seasonal temperatures for the weekend, with afternoon highs in the upper 80s to low 90s. Easterly to southeasterly surface winds look to return by Sunday, bringing a slight increase in temperatures and moisture.

Rain chances look to remain fairly low through the period, however increased forcing and ample instability could support a slight chance for showers and thunderstorms along the cold front Friday. Additional rain chances look possible through the day Saturday as weak overrunning looks to setup behind the front. With the return of easterly to southeasterly surface winds Sunday, increased moisture and instability could again support a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms. The best chance for rain looks to be Sunday, with Probability of Precipitation around 20-30%.

Marine
Issued at 243pm CDT Tuesday May 7 2024

Tonight through Wednesday night...Light to moderate southeast winds and moderate seas will prevail through the forecast period. Tonight, we could see some patchy fog/hazy conditions on the Gulf waters. Brief periods of Small Craft Exercise Caution conditions will be possible each afternoon, especially across the Laguna Madre and northern Gulf waters due to elevated winds.

Thursday through next Tuesday...Light to moderate winds and moderate seas are likely Thursday. However, stronger northeasterly winds behind a cold front Friday will likely require Small Craft Exercise Caution headlines or Small Craft Advisories Friday afternoon. Wind speeds look to diminish Friday night, with light to moderate winds and moderate seas continuing through the remainder of the period.
