.SHORT TERM...
(Tonight through Tuesday night)
Issued at 1233 PM CDT Mon Jun 30 2025

An unsettled weather pattern will continue through the short term
period for all of Deep South Texas with medium to high
precipitation chances (40-80%) through Tuesday evening, and low
precipitation chances (20-30%) Tuesday night through Wednesday
night. Anomalously high moisture content will continue to be
transported via well established low level southeasterly flow,
with guidance indicated precipitable water values remaining
upwards of 2.25-2.50 inches through the forecast period. The 12Z
BRO upper air sounding measured a precipitable water value of 2.21
inches this morning, which is well above the 90th percentile
according to SPCs sounding climatology. Expect multiple rounds of
isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms through Wednesday
evening, with any activity capable of locally heavy rain given the
presence of high moisture content. Thunderstorms will be capable
of gusty winds upwards of 30-4 MPH and lightning.

Otherwise, expect below normal high temperatures and near normal
low temperatures. A moderate risk of rip currents will continue
through at least Tuesday evening along the lower Texas beaches.

.LONG TERM...
(Wednesday through next Monday)
Issued at 1233 PM CDT Mon Jun 30 2025

Moisture content remains elevated on Thursday across the region,
with guidance estimating precipitable water values around 2
inches. Subsidence will also begin to increase as high pressure
begins to build, which should limit any convective development to
be mainly confined to sea breeze activity, primarily during the
afternoon hours. As ridging continues to build overhead by the end
of the week and into the weekend, there should be fairly low (10%
or less) precipitation chances for the 4th of July holiday and
weekend. Near normal temperatures to slightly above normal
temperatures with highs generally in the mid to upper 90s across
the region, with highs in the mid to upper 90s along the Lower
Texas beaches. In combination with the humidity, heat index values
each afternoon will range from 100 to110 degrees. A minor to
moderate heat risk will prevail through the 4th of July holiday
weekend. Remember to practice heat safety if you are planning on
spending a prolonged period outdoors for any festivities or
outdoor activities.

winds upwards of 40 knots, lightning, and heavy rainfall which may
