- Low to medium rain chances return this weekend in response to another frontal boundary.

DISCUSSION

Issued at 158 PM CST Wed Nov 11 2026

Looking to be a pretty cloudy day for the South Texas region, remaining mostly overcast through Thursday evening leading to another cool day with clearing skies expected Friday morning. The mid-level trough responsible for the recent rainfall has moved further east, allowing for a small reprieve from the rain. Expect mostly cooler temperatures with highs in the mid to high 70's and overnight lows dipping into the 50's for most of the CWA through today through Friday. With these temperatures, we can expect some areas of patchy fog to develop tomorrow morning near the Victoria Crossroads. Visibilities ranging between 1-4 miles, and 3-5 miles out in the Brush Country can generally be expected, but will ultimately increase by the early afternoon as diurnal heating burns of any fog that forms.

Guidance is suggesting a shortwave moving through our area late Friday night into Saturday morning as low-level onshore flow returns. This will increase moisture advection, bringing PWAT values to around 1.50-1.7", according to the GEFS Plumes, by Saturday. There's a low to moderate (30-50%) chance for showers and thunderstorms for Saturday into Sunday morning, with slightly higher chances along the coast. Will keep monitoring as guidance updates the closer we get to the weekend.

Issued at 158 PM CST Wed Nov 11 2026

Gentle to moderate northerly winds will continue through tonight, before a cold front pushes through Thursday, strengthening northerly flow to moderate to fresh through the day. Winds decrease to light to gentle Friday, before shifting onshore Friday night. Southeasterly winds will strengthen to moderate to fresh Saturday. Another cold front will push through early next week, shifting moderate to fresh winds out of the north to northeast. Medium rain chances return Saturday through next Monday, with the best chances over the waters late Sunday into Monday.

Elevated fire weather conditions are not expected through the forecast period as minimum relative humidity values remain above 40 percent. Chance for showers returning this weekend, keeping the soils saturated.
