DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 1012 PM CDT THU OCT 9 2025
LATEST SFC ANALYSIS REVEALS A WEAK COOL FRONT OVER THE GULF WATERS
ADJACENT TO THE BORDER OF KENEDY COUNTY. MULTIPLE CLUSTERS OF
SHOWERS WERE ALSO TAKING PLACE OVER THE GULF WATERS WITH MUCH OF
THE ACTIVITY WELL TO OUR SOUTH OVER NORTHEASTERN MEXICO. THROUGH
FRIDAY MORNING, EXPECT FOR ISOLATED SHOWERS TO BE AROUND WITH
TRENDS DECREASING IN TIME AS THE COOL FRONT CONTINUES TO SLOWLY
SHIFT SOUTHWARD THROUGH DEEP SOUTH TEXAS AND ADJACENT GULF WATERS.
DRIER AIR AND WEATHER CONDITIONS RETURN FRIDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING
FOLLOWING THE COOL FROPA AS MID-UPPER RIDGING BUILDS OVER THE REGION
AND SFC HIGH PRESSURE INCREASES ITS INFLUENCE OVER THE AREA. DRIER
AIR AND WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO THEN PERSIST THROUGH THE
REST OF THE FORECAST PERIOD OR THROUGH NEXT FRIDAY.
EAST TO NORTHEAST WINDS WILL CONTINUE BREEZY ON FRIDAY WITH SPEEDS
BETWEEN 15-20 MPH AND GUSTS UP TO 30 MPH, THANKS TO A CONTINUED
ENHANCED PRESSURE GRADIENT FROM A BROAD AND ANOMALOUSLY STRONG HIGH
PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER THE NORTHEAST U.S.
WITH THE NORMAL HIGH TEMPERATURE AT BROWNSVILLE/SOUTH PADRE ISLAND
INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT (KBRO), ANOMALIES THROUGH NEXT FRIDAY WILL
CONTINUE TO RUN SLIGHTLY WARMER THAN NORMAL LEVELS. OVERNIGHT LOWS
WILL BE IN THE 60S AND 70S THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD.
(SEE UPDATE) FINALLY, A COASTAL FLOOD ADVISORY AND A HIGH RISK
FOR RIP CURRENTS ARE IN EFFECT TILL 7 AM CDT FRIDAY MORNING BASED
ON OBSERVATIONS SEEN FROM WEBCAMS ALONG THE SOUTH PADRE ISLAND
BEACHES EARLIER AND OBSERVATIONS/FORECASTS FROM THE SPI BRAZOS
SANTIAGO STATION.
AVIATION
(12Z TAFS)

VFR CONDITIONS AND NORTH-NORTHEASTERLY FLOW ARE EXPECTED TO
PREVAIL FOR THE 12Z TAF CYCLE. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS POPPING
UP OVER THE REGION WILL CONTINUE TRAVERSING SOUTHWESTWARD THROUGH
THE MORNING. CONFIDENCE IN EXACT TIMING OF ANY SHOWERS OVER A
SPECIFIC SITE IS LOW, HOWEVER, MOST LIKELY TIMING OF IMPACTS ARE
DENOTED BY PROB30S (BRO/HRL NOW UNTIL 16Z, MFE UNTIL 18Z). HI-RES
GUIDANCE SUGGESTS SHOWERS MAY CONTINUE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON,
MOVING OUT BY 00Z. ANY SHOWER OR STORM THAT PASSES OVER AN
AIRFIELD HAS POTENTIAL TO BRING GUSTY WINDS, LIGHTNING, AND HEAVY
RAIN REDUCING VISIBILITY.

WILL BEGIN TO IMPROVE OVER THE WEEKEND AS WINDS RELAX RESULTING IN
