.SYNOPSIS FOR THE MIDDLE TEXAS COASTAL WATERS...

Weak to moderate southwest flow will back to the southeast by this
afternoon. No showers are expected but Saharan Dust may linger
over the waters reducing visibility down to around 5 to 6 nautical
miles. Tonight the weak to moderate flow will veer south and then
back to the southeast on Wednesday with a slight chance for
showers in the afternoon. Weak to moderate onshore flow is
expected to continue through the end of the work week. Isolated
showers and thunderstorms are possible this weekend. We continue
to watch the track and potential impacts of Hurricane Beryl on the
Middle Texas coastal waters, but it is still too early to
determine what, if any, impacts will be seen.
