KEY MESSAGES

Updated at 1206 AM CST Mon Jan 12 2026

- Elevated fire weather conditions possible today

- Low to medium rain chances tonight through Tuesday

DISCUSSION

Issued at 1206 AM CST Mon Jan 12 2026

Dry conditions will continue today across South Texas with minimum relative humidity values dropping just below 20% across the Brush Country. Fortunately, winds will be light today, so this will help limit some of our fire weather concerns, so we will hold off on issuing an Fire Danger Statement for now.

Low to medium (15-40%) chances of rain will develop tonight into Tuesday as an over-running pattern develops. Another boundary will then slide through South Texas sometime Wednesday into Thursday. This will lead to an increase in winds and an end to rain chances. Another front will make its way to South Texas this weekend.

High temperatures will stay in the 60s through most of the week, with a brief period of highs in the mid-70s on Wednesday. Overnight temperatures will remain cool, with lows in the 40s.

AVIATION

(06Z TAFS) Issued at 1206 AM CST Mon Jan 12 2026

VFR conditions are expected to prevail for the remainder of the period with light and variable winds.

MARINE

Issued at 1206 AM CST Mon Jan 12 2026

A gentle to moderate (BF 3-4) breeze will continue through the middle of the week. Winds will increase again to fresh to strong (BF 5-6) Wednesday night into Thursday as another cold front moves across the waters. Winds will diminish to gentle to moderate (BF 3- 4)once again Thursday night. There is a low (15-25%) chance of showers tonight through Tuesday night, with another low (less than 20%) chance Friday through Saturday as another front approaches the waters.

FIRE WEATHER

Issued at 1208 PM CST Sun Jan 11 2026

Elevated fire weather conditions will be possible today, though moisture will be a little higher, with minimum relative humidity values around 20%, and winds will be light. Cloudy skies and light rain will be possible this afternoon and evening. Even so, ERC values will still be in the 50th-89th percentile so we will be monitoring conditions today in case fire weather conditions do develop.
