KEY MESSAGES

Updated at 617 AM CDT Fri May 29 2026

- Minor to Moderate Heat Stress conditions across the region through early next week.

- Low to medium (20-50%) rain chances return early next week.

DISCUSSION

Issued at 146 AM CDT Fri May 29 2026

Drier conditions will prevail over South Texas through the early part of next week thanks to ridging aloft. Warmer conditions will also exist through this period with highs in the 80s and 90s across the region with heat indices around 100-105. This will also prevail through early next week. This will lead to minor to moderate heat stress conditions.

The chances for showers and storms will return to the region next week as the ridge weakens allowing for some shortwave energy to creep into the region which will combine with the seabreeze. This will be coupled with a surge of moisture thanks to the return of onshore flow Sunday evening. A low to medium chance for showers and thunderstorms will exist everyday of next week beginning Monday. The highest chances for rainfall will be in the afternoon and tapering off in the evening with the loss of daytime heating.

In addition to this, there will be an increased risk for coastal flooding through portions of this weekend during the high tide cycles. Confidence is low to medium on this occurring though it will be something to monitor. Wave periods will be around 7 seconds predominantly though it will be 8 seconds at times. Tide levels will be relatively low around most of this time frame which could limit the water from reaching the dunes. This will coincide with the full moon which could enhance this risk. All in all, we will continue to monitor this possibility closely over the next few days.
