.Synopsis For High Island to the Matagorda Ship Channel Out 60 NM
including Galveston and Matagorda Bays.

Strong clusters and lines of thunderstorms will continue pushing
off the South Texas Coast this morning. Strong winds from these
thunderstorms will occur as far north as the Upper Texas Coast
Gulf waters. Gusts over 40 knots are a concern as these storms
pass to our south. Meanwhile, scattered light to moderate showers
and a few thunderstorms are expected in our region today into
tonight, with gusty winds possible from these thunderstorms as
well. Light to moderate onshore flow and decreasing seas are
expected in its wake through early next week. However, increasing
onshore flow and swell is possible by the second half of next
week.
