DISCUSSION
Issued at 1250 AM CDT Wed Jun 3 2026
Showers and storms have all mostly dissipated for the night with a few remnant showers on the decayed boundary from the line of storms that moved through the area from the north today. Some stronger winds still remain near the coast from the outflow from earlier but should be calming down in the next few hours.
Overall weak high pressure remains over the area but with ample return flow bringing in plenty of moisture along with a lot of instability will prime the environment for storms again tomorrow, but they should generally be more of the typical summertime storms that kick off on seabreezes instead of what we saw yesterday. However storms will generally be very efficient rain makers so there could be some potential of heavy rainfall. This will continue for the rest of the work week at least. 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.
AVIATION
(12Z TAF Issuance) Issued at 605 AM CDT Wed Jun 3 2026
Seeing some MVFR cigs and scattered shra/tstm activity pick up along the coast early this morning along a weak frontal boundary. Look for this precipitation to transition inland as the day progresses and we get some daytime heating. VFR conditions will generally persist outside of any convection, though some localized heavy downpours, reduced cigs/vsby are possible in and near any stronger cells. Activity should mostly wane after sunset. MVFR cigs should fill in across most of the region overnight. Precip chances will again increase after midnight offshore and near the coast Thurs...again expanding inland during the day. Rinse/repeat... 47
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. A stalled frontal boundary will be in the region today which could lead to variable wind directions at times. 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 are beaches as winds/seas pick up. Winds will return to a more southerly direction this weekend.
