DISCUSSION
Issued at 1208 AM CST Wed Feb 25 2026
Windy conditions will continue through today for most locations, though winds will weaken out west as the day progresses. Near record high temperatures are forecast for much of South Texas today and tomorrow before a weak front moves in Thursday night into Friday morning. This front is not expected to impact temperatures too much (about 10 degrees cooler Friday) but it will usher in a drier airmass.
AVIATION
(06Z TAFS) Issued at 1208 AM CST Wed Feb 25 2026
LLWS will be a concern through 12-14Z as a low-level jet ramps up along the coastal plains. KALI/KCRP/KVCT were the terminals with added LLWS lines with KCOT/KLRD remaining outside of this LLJ influence. Winds will continue to be gusty after 14Z increasing to 20-25 kts along the coast.
MARINE
Issued at 1208 AM CST Wed Feb 25 2026
A southerly strong breeze(BF 6) with occasional gusts to near gale (BF 7) will continue through tonight. Winds Thursday will relax to moderate to fresh breeze (BF 4-5) and to a gentle (BF 3) breeze Thursday night. Rain chances will be minimal (under 5%) through the weekend.
FIRE WEATHER
Issued at 1208 AM CST Wed Feb 25 2026
Elevated fire weather conditions will continue through late this week. Near record warm temperatures today and Thursday will result in RH values dropping to at least 15% out west and 30-40% east. Southerly winds today will be strongest across eastern areas with much lighter winds out west. This will lead to widespread elevated to near critical fire weather conditions. While even drier air moves in Thursday afternoon, winds will weaken a bit ahead of an approaching front and will begin to shift to the northwest by Thursday afternoon/evening behind the front. Winds will remain lighter Friday into Saturday, though low RH levels will persist.
