DISCUSSION

Issued at 151 PM CDT Fri Aug 28 2026

Low end rain chances (less than 40%) will remain in the forecast through Sunday. Showers are expected to develop across the Victoria Crossroads this afternoon before moving southwest into the Brush Country after sunset. We will begin to dry out Monday with our next chance for some showers across South Texas (Victoria Crossroads) late next week. With the lack of rain and return of the warmer temperatures, elevated heat risk will return to the forecast. Please take frequent breaks and hydrate if working outdoors.

Issued at 151 PM CDT Fri Aug 28 2026

Light to gentle onshore breezes through the week will continue with afternoons reaching more moderate strength for inland bays and waterways. Seas will generally be 1-2 ft through Monday. 20-40% rain chances today will become less than 20% daily chances through the upcoming week.

FIRE WEATHER

Issued at 206 AM CDT Fri Aug 28 2026

Minimum relative humidity values will drop to 25-30% each afternoon west of Hwy 281 each afternoon. Due to the hot and dry conditions over the last month, fuels have rapidly cured with Energy Release Component values in the 70th-89th percentile. Winds will limit the overall fire risk, but it will generally remain elevated each afternoon. Chances for showers/thunderstorms this afternoon and evening will bring a low-end chance for a wetting rain. Seabreeze activity will confine rain chances to the coastal plains through the week.
