KEY MESSAGES

Issued at 201 PM CDT Fri Aug 7 2026

- Moderate to major risk of heat-related impacts through the week, with peak heat indices 105 to 110, and high to extreme WBGT values.

- Low-end chances (20-40%) of rain this weekend with highest totals along the coast.

DISCUSSION

Issued at 201 PM CDT Fri Aug 7 2026

Mid-level high pressure continues to be the dominant feature through the forecast period, with warm and mostly rain-free conditions expected. Seabreeze convection will be possible in the afternoons, with the best chances Saturday and Sunday as deep moisture (PWAT values ~2.1" along the coast) interacts with an area of vorticity riding around the periphery of the ridge.

Temperatures will remain hot, with highs in the 90s along the coast to around 105 over the Brush Country. The good news is that there will be a bit more cloud cover this weekend, keeping the heat index generally below 110, though isolated locations could see heat index values up to 112. By early next week, expect heat advisory conditions to return.

AVIATION

(18Z TAFS) Issued at 201 PM CDT Fri Aug 7 2026

VFR conditions will continue through the TAF cycle with periods of MVFR visibility and ceilings in the early morning hours for ALI and VCT. CRP may also experience some MVFR conditions, but have left this mention out of the TAFs due to low confidence. Winds will, once again, be breezy through this afternoon before becoming light overnight.

MARINE

Issued at 201 PM CDT Fri Aug 7 2026

Light to moderate onshore breezes will persist through the weekend. Winds will increase to a more moderate to fresh breeze in the latter part of the week. There is a low to medium (20-50%) chance of showers and thunderstorms this weekend through early next week.
