- MORE OF THE SAME FOR MOST OF US WITH WARM, HUMID CONDITIONS AND
ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS EACH DAY.
DISCUSSION

INVERTED MID/UPPER TROUGH TO OUR EAST WILL MAKE SOME WESTWARD
PROGRESS THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS. LOCALLY, THIS WILL ALLOW HEIGHTS TO
FALL AS THE DOMINATE RIDGING CENTERED TO OUR WEST PARTIALLY ERODES.
AS THIS OCCURS, LOOK FOR A VERY SLIGHT REDUCTION IN DAYTIME HIGHS
AND ALSO A SOMEWHAT LESS HOSTILE ENVIRONMENT FOR PRECIP DEVELOPMENT
FURTHER INLAND THAN WHAT WE'VE SEEN LATELY. IN GENERAL, WOULD
ANTICIPATE DIURNALLY DRIVEN SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ON
PRETTY MUCH A DAILY BASIS...WITH SOME FLUCTUATIONS IN OVERALL
COVERAGE AS WE SEE PEAKS/VALLEYS IN PW VALUES.
LATE THIS UPCOMING WEEK, GUIDANCE IS IN PRETTY GOOD AGREEMENT
DEPICTING A STRENGTHENING MID/UPPER RIDGE EXPANDING INTO THE
REGION FROM THE EAST. A CORRESPONDING UPWARD BUMP IN TEMPS AND
LOWER RAIN CHANCES SHOULD THEN BE IN THE WORKS. 47

PATCHY FOG AROUND TYPICAL PROBLEM SPOTS CXO AND LBX, WHICH SHOULD
IMPROVE OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS. OTHERWISE, VFR WITH LIGHT,
GENERALLY (BUT NOT EXCLUSIVELY) SOUTHEASTERLY WINDS. MODEL
GUIDANCE SHOWS MIXED SIGNALS FOR ISOLATED TSRA AS FAR NORTH AS CXO
AS WE TRANSITION TO BETTER STORM COVERAGE NEXT WEEK. SO BEGIN WITH
SHRA POTENTIAL AT THE COAST LATER THIS MORNING, BECOMING PROB30S
FOR TSRA FOR THE METRO TERMINALS AND CXO. POTENTIAL FOR CONVERTING
THAT PROB30 TO VCTS/PREVAILING WILL BE ENTIRELY DEPENDENT ON
EXACTLY WHERE THE DAY'S STORMS POP UP, BUT SLIGHTLY FAVORED FOR
SGR AND HOU OVER IAH AND CXO.
MARINE
ISSUED AT 1226 PM CDT SAT AUG 9 2025
DAILY SEABREEZES WILL KICK WIND SPEEDS UP INTO THE 12-17KT RANGE
IN THE AFTERNOONS/EVENINGS NEAR THE COAST AND BAYS. OTHERWISE, LIGHT
ONSHORE WINDS AND LOW SEAS WILL CONTINUE TO PREVAIL. COMPARED TO
THE LAST COUPLE DAYS, WE WILL PROBABLY SEE A SLIGHT UPTICK IN SCATTERED
SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY OVER THE WATERS...PRIMARILY THE
LATE NIGHT THROUGH EARLY AFTERNOON VARIETY EACH DAY. 47
