410 PM CST SUN FEB 22 2026
IF CONDITIONS BECOME UNREPRESENTATIVE...CONTACT THE NATIONAL WEATHER
SERVICE.
DISCUSSION
COLDER AND MUCH DRIER AIR CONTINUES TO FLOOD INTO SOUTHEAST
TEXAS ON GUSTY NORTH WINDS. THE DRYNESS OF THE INCOMING AIR
OUTWEIGHS THE COOLER TEMPS, WHICH WILL PUSH RH TO MINIMUM
VALUES AROUND 20 PERCENT IN THIS AREA. WHILE GRADUALLY
DIMINISHING THROUGH THE DAY, NORTH WINDS LOOK TO REMAIN
RELATIVELY STRONG AND GUSTY. WINDS WILL BE 10-15 MPH WITH
GUSTS TO AROUND 20 MPH THROUGH THIS EVENING.
WHILE NOT REACHING CRITICAL THRESHOLDS THAT WOULD REQUIRE A
RED FLAG WARNING, THESE CONDITIONS ARE WINDIER AND DRIER THAN
TYPICAL, MAKING IT WISE TO USE CAUTION AGAIN TODAY WITH
ANYTHING THAT CAN CAUSE SPARKS OR OTHERWISE IGNITE FIRES,
ESPECIALLY IN GRASSY AREAS. BEYOND TODAY, VERY DRY CONDITIONS
WILL STAY WITH US INTO THE EARLY WEEK, WHILE WINDS DO BECOME
LIGHTER, EVENTUALLY VEERING TO BECOME ONSHORE ON TUESDAY.
