DISCUSSION

Issued at 200 PM CDT Wed Jun 3 2026

Scattered to widespread showers and storms capable of producing 1-3 inches of rainfall continue to move inland this afternoon along the sea breeze front. Hi-res guidance depicts the convection to migrate into the northern portions of the CWA through this evening.

Overall weak high pressure remains over the area but with ample onshore flow bringing in plenty of moisture along with a lot of instability will prime the environment for daily shower and storm activity through the end of the week. The stronger storms will generally be very efficient rain makers so there could be some potential of heavy rainfall and increasing flooding threat going into this weekend. In addition to the stormy weather, temperatures will be at or above the normal for the highs this time of year. Some of the storms might locally relieve areas of the highest temps but otherwise we'll be seeing high 80s to low 90s for much of this week.

MARINE

Issued at 605 AM CDT Wed Jun 3 2026

Deep, moist air in place will lead to intermittent periods of showers and thunderstorms for the next several days. East northeast to east southeast winds will increase Thursday and Friday. With a long fetch in place, look for wave heights to build as a longer period swell moves into the waters. Small Craft Advisories may be needed at times. The rip current risk will increase along area beaches as winds/seas pick up. Winds will return to a more southerly direction this weekend.
