THE UPPER-LEVEL RIDGE OVER THE CENTRAL US WILL SHIFT WESTWARD
OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. THIS WILL ALLOW AN UPPER LEVEL
TROUGH TO SLOWLY SHIFT WESTWARD INTO EASTERN TEXAS BY MID WEEK.
WHILE SUBSIDENCE ASSOCIATED WITH THE RIDGE WILL GENERALLY SUPPRESS
CONVECTION EARLY IN THE WEEK, RAIN CHANCES WILL BEGIN TO INCREASE
TUESDAY AND CONTINUE TO INCREASE INTO NEXT WEEKEND. A LOW
(20-30%) CHANCE FOR DAILY SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ALONG THE SEA
BREEZE WILL BEGIN TUESDAY AND CONTINUE THROUGH THE FORECAST
PERIOD, WITH RAIN CHANCES INCREASING TO 30-40% NEXT WEEKEND.
HIGH TEMPERATURES LOOK TO REMAIN IN THE UPPER 90S TO LOW 100S
THROUGH MUCH OF THE WEEK. INCREASED CLOUD COVER LATE IN THE WEEK
COULD LIMIT HIGH TEMPERATURES TO THE UPPER 90S ACROSS THE AREA.
HEAT INDEX VALUES WILL LIKELY REMAIN BELOW HEAT ADVISORY CRITERIA
THROUGH THE WEEK, THEY SOME AREAS MAY BRIEFLY REACH 110-112.
