MIXING OUT LOWER CLOUDS TO SOME EXTENT...AND PRODUCING VFR
CONDITIONS. BREEZY WINDS WILL CONTINUE WEDNESDAY NIGHT WITH A

RIDGE ACROSS NORTHERN MEXICO AND SOUTHWEST TEXAS WILL CONTINUE
TO PROVIDE SUBSIDENCE ACROSS THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY TONIGHT INTO

PANHANDLE LATE TONIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY ALLOWING THE PRESSURE
GRADIENT TO INCREASE ACROSS THE LOWER TX COAST WEDNESDAY INTO WED
NIGHT. HOT AND RELATIVELY HUMID CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE ON

LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...A WEAK COLD FRONT IS
EXPECTED TO APPROACH DEEP SOUTH SOUTH TEXAS BY LATE WEEK. THE

INLAND. HIGH TEMPERATURES SHOULD BE IN MID 90S NEAR THE COAST TO
AROUND 100 OVER THE FAR WEST. HEAT INDICES ARE EXPECTED TO BE IN
THE 105 TO 108 RANGE MAINLY OVER THE FAR WEST ON THURSDAY. SHOWERS
AND EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP NORTH OF THE RIO GRANDE
VALLEY THURSDAY NIGHT AHEAD OF THE FRONT. THE WEAK FRONT MAY BE
ABLE TO PUSH THROUGH THE AREA BUT HAVE INCREASED POPS FOR FRIDAY
AS MOISTURE POOLS AND LIGHTER WINDS MAY SUPPORT AFTERNOON SEA
BREEZE CONVECTION.

MARINE...
TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT...SEAS WERE NEAR 3 FEET WITH
SOUTHEAST WINDS NEAR 10 KNOTS AT BUOY020 THIS AFTERNOON. MODERATE
SOUTHEAST WINDS WILL PREVAIL ACROSS THE COASTAL WATERS TONIGHT
INTO WEDNESDAY BEFORE INCREASING WED NIGHT AS THE PRESSURE
GRADIENT INCREASES ACROSS THE WESTERN GULF OF MEXICO. SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORIES WILL BE NEEDED FOR THE OFFSHORE WATERS OF THE LOWER
TEXAS COAST WED NIGHT AS WINDS AND SEAS INCREASE LATE WEDNESDAY.

THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...LOW PRESSURE OVER THE TEXAS PANHANDLE
WILL INTERACT WITH HIGH PRESSURE ACROSS THE NORTHWEST GULF OF
MEXICO TO PRODUCE STRONGER WINDS AND HIGHER SEAS WEDNESDAY NIGHT.
SOUTH SOUTHEAST WINDS WILL INCREASE TO ABOVE 20 KNOTS WEDNESDAY
NIGHT AND SEAS WILL BUILD. WAVE HEIGHTS SHOULD INCREASE TO AROUND
SEVEN FEET BY THURSDAY MORNING. SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CONDITIONS
