A GENERALLY PLEASANT WEEK IS IN STORE ACROSS DEEP SOUTH TEXAS,
WITH MOSTLY RAIN-FREE CONDITIONS AND NEAR TO BELOW NORMAL
TEMPERATURES IN STORE. TEMPERATURES WILL GRADUALLY WARM INTO THE
LOW TO MID 70S BY THURSDAY, WITH LOW TEMPERATURES RANGING FROM THE
UPPER 30S ACROSS THE NORTHERN RANCHLANDS TO UPPER 40S AND LOW 50S
ACROSS THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY. A COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO
APPROACH THE REGION BY LATE THURSDAY NIGHT OR FRIDAY, USHERING IN
BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES FRIDAY AND THROUGH THE WEEKEND. THE
LATEST GUIDANCE IS TRENDING SLIGHTLY DRIER THAN PREVIOUS RUNS,
BUT LOW PRECIPITATION CHANCES (20-30%) REMAIN IN THE FORECAST
THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY PRIMARILY ALONG THE IMMEDIATE COAST,
AND LOW TO MEDIUM RAIN CHANCES (20-50%) ACROSS THE GULF WATERS.
OTHERWISE, THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR A FREEZE THIS WEEKEND ONCE
AGAIN, WITH THE BEST CHANCES CURRENTLY ACROSS THE NORTHERN
RANCHLANDS. ADVERSE BEACH/MARINE CONDITIONS ARE LIKELY ALONG THE
LOWER TEXAS BEACHES AND GULF WATERS FRIDAY THROUGH THE WEEKEND.
