Long Term
(Friday through next Tuesday) Issued at 218pm CDT Wednesday May 8 2024

Key Messages:

▶ Weak cold front Friday morning

▶ Rain chances return this weekend

Models are beginning to come into better agreement showing a weak cold front pushing through the region Friday morning providing some relief from the recent above normal temperatures. While rain chances are low with the cold front, rain chances will increase Saturday as the front retreats northward as a warm front ushering in PWAT (Precipitable Water) between 2.0-2.1". Low end chances (20% or less) for rain Saturday will increase to a medium (30-55%) chance Sunday and Monday as a shortwave moves across the region interacting with the abundant moisture. While the Victoria Crossroads appears to be the early favorite for the best chances of rain, the whole county warning area will be in play especially Monday, when models show a surface low moving across the area. Rain chances will quickly taper off early next week as we begin to dry out.

Temperatures in the wake of the front will drop into the 80s Friday afternoon and Saturday with most of the region in the lower to upper 80s. Temperatures will begin to increase once again Sunday before climbing back into the lower to upper 90s early next week into mid- week. Lows throughout the long term period are expected to remain steady in the lower to mid 70s.

Marine
Issued at 218pm CDT Wednesday May 8 2024

Weak to moderate onshore winds can be expected through Thursday night along with patchy fog in the late night and early morning hours. In addition to patchy fog, haze from near-surface smoke southward will likely continue before our next front passes. A cold front will move offshore Friday morning. Weak to moderate northeast winds Friday will strengthen to moderate to strong Saturday as it shifts to the east. By early next week, winds will shift to the southeast and remain moderate. Rain chances return Saturday with a low chance and increases to a medium chance Sunday and Monday.
