.NEAR TERM...
(Now through Sunday)
Issued at 447 AM CDT Sat Sep 7 2024

The rainy pattern marches on as the upper level trough finally 
pushes east of the area. Upper level flow will gradually become 
more westerly throughout the day stalling just offshore. Steady 
overrunning rain will likely persist through the day today with 
the best rain chances along the immediate coastline. Rain totals 
will be significantly less today than yesterday and most places 
will likely be dry by later this afternoon. However, overcast 
skies will remain, keeping temperatures in check. Rain chances 
will continue along the immediate coastline on Sunday as the 
subtle boundary waffles just offshore. Inland areas will likely 
remain dry on Sunday as drier air is able to filter into the area.
A Moderate risk of rip currents will continue through today 
before slowly subsiding by the middle of the week BB/03

.SHORT AND LONG TERM...
(Monday through Friday) 
Issued at 447 AM CDT Sat Sep 7 2024

Moisture begins to return to the area on Monday with chances for 
showers and storms increasing across the southern half of the 
area. Precipitable water values well over 2 inches return to the 
entire area through midweek and combined with weak disturbances 
rotating through the flow aloft will result in unsettled 
conditions through much of the period. Highs will remain in the 
low to mid 80s. /13

.MARINE...
Issued at 447 AM CDT Sat Sep 7 2024

A light to moderate northeasterly flow will persist through 
the weekend. Winds should shift back to easterly on Monday and 
Tuesday. We are closely monitoring a tropical disturbance in the far 
southwestern Gulf which may lead to increased winds and waves later 
next week. Winds and seas will be higher near scattered to numerous 
showers and thunderstorms through the period. BB/03
