.SHORT TERM...
(This evening through Thursday Night)
Issued at 346 PM CDT Wed Sep 25 2024
A transition to drier and less humid conditions begins today and
should persist through at least the next few days. A cold front,
currently extending along the coastal counties will continue to
move southeastward this afternoon. Sufficient moisture, daytime
heating and low-level convergence have resulted in scattered
showers and thunderstorms ahead and along of the boundary.
Additional post- frontal scattered activity can be expected
through early this evening, before the front finally moves off the
coast.
Latest sfc observations and satellite imagery show sfc high
pressure already moving across the TX Panhandle, beginning to push
a drier, slightly cooler and less humid airmass into the region.
Skies should gradually clear from northwest to southeast tonight,
resulting in a cooler night with lows generally in the 60s and low
70s.
Thursday is shaping up to be drier and less humid as surface
dewpoints drop into the 50s and 60s degC. Highs will climb into
the mid to near 90. Tight pressure gradient will result in breezy
conditions, especially along the coast. A pleasant night can be
expected Thursday night into Friday with mostly clear skies and
overnight lows from the upper 50s to upper 60s.

(Friday through next Tuesday)
Issued at 346 PM CDT Wed Sep 25 2024
A closed low over the Lower Mississippi River Valley will keep
northerly flow in place behind the cold front, bringing drier
conditions over the next several days. With moisture and PVA
wrapping around the closed low aloft, there is a non-zero chance
that some isolated showers/storms could develop across portions of
the Piney Woods area on Friday/Saturday. Still, drier conditions
with PWs largely under 1 inch will largely suppress rain chances.
The aforementioned close low should lift north towards the
Tennessee/Ohio Valley over the weekend. As it does, ridging slowly
builds over the Four Corners, with temperatures progged to rise
into early next week. Northerly flow should stiffen this warming
trend, with highs reaching the upper 80s to mid 90s next week.
Lows should remain in the 60s inland to 70s near the coast.
Isolated spots across the Piney Woods area could see lows drop
below the 60 degree mark. Global deterministic guidance suggests
that a shortwave trough will pass over the area on Monday/Tuesday,
bringing a second push of drier air into SE Texas later the the
week.

A weak frontal boundary will progress through the area triggering
isolated/scattered showers and occasional isolated thunderstorms
as it moves southeast toward the coast. Skies areawide are
expected to gradually clear out through the evening and overnight
hours, becoming mostly clear by early morning Thursday. Winds will
increase out of the north to 10-15 kts by mid to late morning
with occasional gusts up to 20 kts.

Light to moderate northeast winds and scattered showers/storms are
expected this afternoon/evening as a cold front pushes off the
coast. Small Craft Advisories will be in effect early Thursday
morning as northerly winds approach 20 knots and seas rise to 3 to 5
feet. Winds and seas decrease through the end of the work week, with
predominantly offshore flow prevailing over the weekend.

.SHORT TERM...
(Today through Friday Night)
Issued at 342 AM CDT Thu Sep 26 2024
Drier and cooler weather is brought to you by yesterday`s FROPA that
has left behind N/NW winds. Expect these winds to continue pulling
in slightly cooler air through the short-term period, resulting in
highs in the 80s to low 90s today and Friday.
Clear skies at night will allow for more radiational cooling to take
place and will *finally* bring fall-like lows to SE Texas.
Temperatures tonight and Friday night will drop into the 60s for
most of the area. Locations in the Piney Woods and portions of the
Brazos Valley could see lows in the upper 50s.
In addition to the cooler temperatures, a tightening pressure
gradient will create breezy conditions through tonight, particularly
along the coast.

Drier conditions can be expected over the weekend and on into the start
of next week as the nearly stationary closed low off to our northeast
eventually weakens and lifts out of the area. With the low nearby over
the weekend, some wrap around clouds could spread across parts of our
area. Other than that, weather should stay quiet as a drier airmass
(precipitable water values around 1 inch) persists. As the next week
progresses, moisture pooling in/around the Bay of Campeche could gradually
spread into the western Gulf and across parts of our area. We have some
showers entering our marine forecast area starting on Monday and gradually
working their way toward the coast and inland on Wednesday and Thursday.
While lower afternoon humidities will persist across the area, a slow
warming trend can be expected. For high temperatures, will generally
expect inland locations in an upper 80s to mid 90s range with mid to
upper 80s along the coast. For low temperatures, we`ll start out Saturday
night with low to mid 60s inland and low to mid 70s at the coast, and
by Tuesday and Wednesday we will have mid to upper 60s inland and mid
70s at the coast. 42

I pray that no one stayed to ride out the storm in the Big Bend area of Florida. I remember Hurricane Ike and that storm pounded Houston for Hours. Also Hurricane conditions are going to exist all the way to Macon and maybe Atlanta GA.. incredible

So glad that didn't come here. We wouldn't have power until Thanksgiving.
Hurricane Beryl was enough for me.
Michael was an infrastructure eraser in Mexico Beach.
Helene was east enough - a lot of the big bend/swamp dwellers left, some moved permanently after Debbie and last year's hurricane. Cedar Key is a mess.
Couple weeks ago, I emphatically stated my belief that Hurricane season was all but over for SETX. Looks like I may have been dead wrong, as was stated by a couple here. I hope to God not.
I’ll gladly own my misfire, but Lord, I do not want to.
Please just let it be a fast-moving tropical storm. Please.
I’ll gladly own my misfire, but Lord, I do not want to.
Please just let it be a fast-moving tropical storm. Please.
I'm glad I don't have to worry about hurricanes anymore, I love them but the long duration power outages are unbearable.
I’m not liking the yellow area at all in the NHC tropical outlook photo. It’s too much leaning in our direction.

Im not concerned about it, ensembles guidance suggests either it gets buried into mexico or gets picked up by a trough and turns NE to SW lousiana or even florida again, Texas is safe because its extremely difficult to get a storm to come here when its going to october soon and we see more frequent troughing over the central- eastern US
