TUESDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING, ALLOWING LOW
TEMPERATURES TO DROP INTO THE MID 50S TO LOW 60S. A LINE OF
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL LIKELY DEVELOP ALONG PORTIONS OF
THE FRONT, THOUGH HOW FAR WEST THIS LINE WILL EXTEND IS UNCERTAIN.
RAIN CHANCES WILL BE HIGHEST (60-70%) OVER THE COASTAL WATERS AND
IMMEDIATE COASTLINE, RAPIDLY DECREASING FURTHER INLAND.
BEHIND THE FRONT, MUCH COOLER AND DRIER AIR IS EXPECTED THROUGH
FRIDAY, WITH HIGH TEMPERATURES IN THE MID 70S TO LOW 80S. LOW
TEMPERATURES WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHTS ARE EXPECTED TO FALL TO
THE MID 40S TO LOW 50S. DEW POINTS ARE EXPECTED TO FALL SHARPLY
BEHIND THE FRONT, WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE 20S THROUGH THE DAY

STRONG NORTHERLY WINDS ARE EXPECTED IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT
WEDNESDAY. COMBINED WITH THE DRY AIR THIS WILL INCREASE THE FIRE
WEATHER RISK WEDNESDAY. A FIRE WEATHER WATCH IS IN PLACE FOR
WEDNESDAY, AND WILL LIKELY NEED TO BE UPGRADED TO A RED FLAG
WARNING.
STRONG WINDS ALONG THE LOWER TEXAS COAST WILL LIKELY INCREASE
SURF HEIGHTS AND STRENGTHEN RIP CURRENTS. THIS WILL LIKELY RESULT
IN HAZARDOUS BEACH CONDITIONS WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. RIP CURRENT
STATEMENTS AND HIGH SURF ADVISORIES WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED.
WIND SPEEDS ARE EXPECTED TO DECREES THURSDAY AS WINDS GRADUALLY
SHIFT BACK TO THE SOUTHEAST. THIS WILL ALLOW WARMER AND MORE HUMID
RETURN FLOW TO GRADUALLY INCREASE TEMPERATURES AND RELATIVE
HUMIDITY THROUGH THE WEEKEND. HIGH TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO
RETURN TO THE MID TO UPPER 80S BY SATURDAY AND MAY REACH THE LOW
90S EARLY NEXT WEEK.
