Last Map Update: Mon, Dec 30, 2024 at 8:40:09 am CST

Lingering morning fog will clear by mid-morning as daytime heating takes over with south to southwest winds of 5-15 mph. Record heat is likely to be set this afternoon across South Texas with highs from around 80 along the coast to the lower 90s over the Brush Country.
Sunny skies with highs in the lower to mid 70s along the Middle Texas Coast beaches. South winds around 15 mph and a LOW risk of rip currents. Wave heights of 2-3 feet but water temperatures are in the 60s.
Light variable winds and clear skies tonight ahead of an approaching cold front will allow for a medium chance of fog over the Coastal Plains. Lows will drop into the 50s across South Texas.
Highs in the 60s to 70s and lows in the 40s to 50s will follow through the rest of the week in wake of a cold front Tuesday morning. Cloud cover will increase New Year's Day through this weekend but any rain chances remain focused over the waters.
