EXPECTING A PRETTY DRY DAY TODAY ACROSS DEEP SOUTH TEXAS AND THE RIO
GRANDE VALLEY. CHANCES REMAIN ABOUT 10% OR LESS, THOUGH WE COULD SEE
SOME ISOLATED SEABREEZE ACTIVITY. A FEW CAMS ALSO STILL HAVE A
SOME ISOLATED SIERRA MADRE CONVECTION LATER THIS AFTERNOON INTO
TONIGHT, BUT THAT ACTIVITY IS NOT EXPECTED TO MAKE IT TO TEXAS.
TUESDAY, RAIN CHANCES ONCE AGAIN WILL INCREASE AS AN UPPER LEVEL
TROUGH MOVES INTO WEST TEXAS. WE WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE PLENTY OF
MOISTURE TO WORK WITH AND PWATS ARE FORECASTED TO INCREASE TO 2 TO
2.25 INCHES ON TUESDAY LINGERING INTO WEDNESDAY. THIS ABUNDANT
MOISTURE ALONG WITH THE UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL SUPPORT HEAVY
RAINFALL WITH ANY SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY. WPC HAS PLACED
ZAPATA, JIM HOGG, AND NORTHWESTERN BROOKS COUNTY IN A MARGINAL RISK
(LEVEL 1 OUT OF 4) OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL ON TUESDAY. ON WEDNESDAY
THIS AREA SHIFTS EASTWARD WITH EASTERN JIM HOGG BROOKS, KENEDY,
MUCH IF HIDALGO, WILLACY, AND CAMERON COUNTIES IN A MARGINAL RISK
OF EXCESSIVE RAINFALL. IN ADDITION SPC HAS PLACED ALL OF DEEP
SOUTH TEXAS IN A MARGINAL RISK (LEVEL 1 OUT OF 5) FOR SEVERE
WEATHER TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT AND A GENERAL RISK OF
THUNDERSTORMS ON WEDNESDAY. WHILE WE COULD SEE A FEW SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOP TUESDAY AFTERNOON, IT LOOKS AS THOUGH THE
MAIN THREAT WILL BE TUESDAY EVENING/OVERNIGHT ASSOCIATED WITH A
SQUALL LINE MOVING THROUGH THE AREA. MAIN HAZARDS WITH THIS
ACTIVITY WILL BE WINDS IN EXCESSES OF 58 MPH, HAIL OF 1 INCH OR
GREATER, AND HEAVY RAINFALL.
WHILE DRIER CONDITIONS RETURN THURSDAY AND FRIDAY, THERE WILL BE A
LOW CHANCE SEA BREEZE SHOWER/THUNDERSTORMS. YET ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL
DISTURBANCE APPROACHES LATE THIS WEEKEND WITH RAIN AND THUNDERSTORM
CHANCES INCREASING AGAIN SUNDAY INTO TUESDAY.
TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN NEAR TO JUST ABOVE SEASONAL NORMS THROUGH
THE FORECAST PERIOD.
