light to moderate onshore flow and seas of 3 to 6 feet are expected for the next few days. Caution flags may be needed at times. Rounds of showers and storms will be possible this weekend with rain chances tapering off next week. Some of these storms could become strong to severe, producing strong wind gusts and locally elevated seas. Persistent onshore flow over the next few days could result in strong rip currents along the gulf facing beaches.

The first day of June will be a bit quieter than the last day of May, but that doesn't mean we are out of the woods for storm potential today. A combination of daytime heating, abundant moisture, and a passing weak shortwave aloft will lead to pop-up showers and storms through the day today. Activity will first start along the coast between the mid and late morning, expanding northwards through the afternoon, then dissipating this evening.
While most storms will be sub-severe today, there is a chance for an isolated severe thunderstorm or two capable of producing strong wind gusts and potentially some hail. SPC has placed all of SE Texas in a Marginal Risk (level 1 of 5) for Severe Storms today, and WPC has also placed most of SE Texas in a Marginal (level 1 of 4) for Excessive Rainfall. The storms that pop up will be capable of bringing a quick downpour of 1-3", which normally wouldn't be an issue but soils are very well saturated after yesterday's heavy rainfall. A lull in the activity is expected overnight tonight, but late morning and afternoon thunderstorms will again bloom over SE Texas. Another upper level shortwave will be moving in from the west, so there is potential for a line of storms to move into SE Texas sometime tomorrow afternoon/evening - however, exactly how strong, when, and where is largely uncertain right now.
Temperatures over the weekend will be rather seasonal during the daytime hours with high temperatures in the upper 80s to low 90s.
The onshore flow and high dew points will lead to overnight low temperatures to be unseasonably warm, in the mid to upper 70s inland and low 80s along the coast.

A drier weather pattern seems to be setting up across Southeast Texas for much of the upcoming work week. Early next week, although the environment seems to be healthy enough for some shower and thunderstorms development, in particular with onshore flow continuing to supply warm moist air from the Gulf, good instability remains in place, and weak disturbance and vort maxes moving over the region, models seem to favor the cap limiting our rain chances for much of Southeast Texas. The best opportunity for showers and storms are currently located over the Brazos Valley and Piney Woods region for Monday.
The cap is then expected to strengthen Tuesday. Dry conditions will continue into Wednesday as mid level ridge builds a little more and with 500 mb heights slightly increasing, we will likely see temperatures go from the low 90s on Monday and Tuesday to the low to mid 90s on Wednesday. Some isolated spots may even see lows in the mid to upper 90s both Wednesday and Thursday. With the onshore flow continuing low level moisture transport, dewpoints will remain generally in the mid to upper 70s. This combined with rising temperatures, we could see heat indices between 103 to 110 deg F and heat advisories may be required. Please remember to practice heat safety and make the appropriate preparations if you plan to work or spend time outdoors. Drink plenty of fluids, stay in an air-conditioned room, stay out of the sun, and check up on relatives and neighbors. Never leave children and pets in unattended vehicles. For those walking or taking your pets outdoors, remember, if it is too hot for your palm, then it is too hot for their paws and bring water for them as well.
By the end of the work week, there is still some model inconsistency but there might be a weak cold front to our north or northeast and it could slid close to or possibly over Southeast Texas. If the frontal boundary stays out of our location, we may continue be remain on the dry side of things as high pressure dominates the weather pattern along with continued heat impacts.
Some rain chances could occur if the boundary makes it into Southeast Texas and would also help bring down the highs closer into the low 90s. Heat indices would also decrease slightly, roughly in the low 100s. Regardless, we are transitioning into a summer pattern and conditions will naturally be warming up.

VFR conditions will prevail through this evening with south- southeasterly winds developing around 6-11kt. Showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop during the late morning along the coast, the spread inland through the afternoon bringing temporary periods of heavy rainfall and gusty winds. Coverage decreases after sunset with MVFR conditions developing after midnight with CIGs around 1500-2500ft expected. Patchy fog will also be possible at times. These conditions improve through Sunday morning, but additions storms are possible this Sunday afternoon.
