5-Day Outlook

Light to moderate rain will continue through the start of the work week across Deep South Texas. Rainfall amounts will range from around 0.5-1.5 inches through tomorrow evening. Temperatures will remain below normal for mid April to start the work week as well.

A High Surf Advisory is in effect from 6 AM Sunday until 7 PM Sunday. Large breaking waves in the surf zone will be dangerous to anyone entering the water. Additionally, a High Risk for rip currents is in effect from 6 AM Sunday through Monday evening. Life-threatening rip currents are expected along the Lower Texas Coast beaches.

A Coastal Flood Advisory is in effect until 10 PM Sunday. Nuisance flooding around high tide may make beaches impassible to vehicles as water reaches into the dunes.

A Small Craft Advisory is in effect from 1 AM Sunday until 10 PM Sunday. Northeast winds 15 to 25 knots with gusts to 30 knots and seas up to 9 feet will be hazardous to small craft.

Unfavorable weather conditions at the local beaches today will be made worse by a HIGH RISK of rip currents in the surf zone.

Decreasing rain chances and increasing temperatures will occur for the new work week.
