.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Sunday)
Issued at 424 AM CDT Sat Jul 6 2024

Key Messages:

- All of South Texas interests should make sure their preparedness
plans are in order and stay informed regarding Beryl.

- Rain chances increase Sunday and continue into next week.

- Hazardous marine conditions continue into next week.

Focus remains on Tropical Storm Beryl as it has now entered the Gulf
of Mexico and will continue a track toward the Texas coast. Guidance
consistency has improved, with a Middle Texas Coast landfall as a
hurricane becoming more likely. See the latest hurricane local
statement for more details on specifics in the impacts from the
storm.

.LONG TERM...
(Sunday night through next Friday)
Issued at 424 AM CDT Sat Jul 6 2024

This storm will pull off to the north Monday night into Tuesday
leaving quieter conditions but lingering showers and storms as deep
moisture is expected to remain in place. Another tropical wave
passes south of the area mid-week, but development is not expected
associated with that wave.

Near normal temperatures continue today and Sunday, but would expect
cooler temperatures at least east on Monday as the storm makes
landfall. Temperatures increase back to normal through the rest of
the week. Pops for the rest of the week are mainly an enhanced sea
breeze situation with scattered showers/storms as the sea breeze
moves in each afternoon.
