575 FXUS64 KBRO 131118 AAA AFDBRO Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Brownsville TX 618 AM CDT Mon Oct 13 2025 ...New AVIATION... .KEY MESSAGES... Updated at 617 AM CDT Mon Oct 13 2025 - A Coastal Flood Statement continues through sunrise and a High Risk of Rip Currents continues this evening. - An influx of tropical moisture is expected to bring a low chance (20-40%) for showers and thunderstorms Tuesday. - Temperatures are expected to be near to slightly above seasonal through the week. && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 1043 PM CDT Sun Oct 12 2025 An upper level ridge looks to remain over the central US through mid week, generally supporting broad subsidence and dry air aloft. An upper level closed low looks to rotate around the southern periphery of the ridge Tuesday into Wednesday, which could briefly increase forcing and mid level moisture across Deep South Texas. This will present a 20-40% chance for showers and thunderstorms Tuesday. Minor coastal flooding and strong rip currents will continue to be a concern Monday, however the elevated astronomical tides and long period swell responsible for these hazards will continue to subside through the next day or so, with favorable beach conditions likely to return by mid week. && .AVIATION...
