KEY MESSAGES

Issued at 548 AM CDT Sat Oct 10 2026

- Coastal flooding and rip currents will continue this weekend due to Hurricane Isaias

- Generally dry across South Texas through the week and into the weekend with a low chance of rain by early next week

DISCUSSION

Issued at 114 AM CDT Sat Oct 10 2026

Continued drier conditions will last through the remainder of the weekend and through most of next week in South Texas outside of isolated seabreeze showers and thunderstorms. Some residual energy from Hurricane Simon over in the Pacific will look to creep into the region Monday with South Texas on the right flank of the area of low pressure. Ahead of this onshore flow will return to the region allowing for deep moisture pooling beginning late this evening. The presence of these to factors will likely lead to a low chance for unsettled weather in the region Monday. Will continue to monitor this over the next few model runs.

Hurricane Isaias made landfall a few hours ago, therefore the impacts to South Texas will begin to wane. The threats will also begin to wane with seas slowly returning to normalcy. Hazardous seas will last at least until midmorning today, though coastal flooding and rip currents will likely hold until Sunday morning. A Coastal Flood Advisory will remain in effect through then as well as a high risk of rip currents. This is mainly due to higher swell periods around 9-10 seconds which will gradually decrease through Saturday night.
