NEAR TERM
(Now through Thursday)
Issued at 320 PM CDT Wed Apr 24 2024

Northwesterly flow aloft will continue across the region tonight and and Thursday on the backside of a shortwave trough that will be moving into the western Atlantic off the southeast US coast. At the surface, a high pressure ridge will continue to stretch west-east across our area through Thursday as well. A somewhat variable light surface wind flow pattern will continue tonight into early Thursday, but increase slightly and become more predominately southerly by late in the day on Thursday. Gradual increase in low/mid level moisture through the period, with PWATS rising into the 1.25 to 1.50 inch range tonight and Thursday. Overall though, the the deep layer between 850-700MB. Some weak shortwave energy aloft on Thursday, combined with the increasing moisture, could result in an isolated shower or storm over the northern third of the forecast area (up along the Highway 84 corridor) on Thursday, but for now the chances of any rain for now remains too low to carry an PoP greater than 20 percent. There could also be some very patchy light fog development across interior portions of the forecast area late tonight. The gradual warming trend continues. Lows tonight are expected to range from the middle 50s over most interior locations to the lower 60s along the coast. High temperatures return to 80s for most locations on Thursday, with low to mid 80s expected except for some upper 70s along the immediate coast where the onshore flow moderates temperatures just slightly. DS/12

LONG TERM
(Thursday night through Wednesday)
Issued at 320 PM CDT Wed Apr 24 2024

The area remains dry through the weekend before rain chances return early next week.

Northwest flow aloft remains across the forecast area Thursday night before upper level ridging pushes across the area. This will transition us to a more westerly and eventually southwest flow aloft as we head into the weekend and early next week. The forecast area remains predominately dry as any appreciable shortwaves pass well to the north of the gulf coast through the weekend. A sharper, deeper trough may try to impinge on the area Monday into Tuesday which may result in slightly increased chances for showers and thunderstorms early next week.
Temperatures remain seasonable in the lower to middle 80's for highs each afternoon and lows in the lower to middle 60's each morning.

Beach Note: Rip current risk increases to MODERATE on Friday with a HIGH RISK expected on Saturday and Sunday as onshore flow continues to increase at the beaches. RCMOS probabilities indicate a high likelihood of the risk remaining HIGH through Monday and potentially into early Tuesday at all local beaches. MM/25 07/mb

MARINE
Issued at 320 PM CDT Wed Apr 24 2024

A light and somewhat variable flow pattern will prevail across the marine area through Thursday morning, especially over the bays and near shore Gulf waters. An onshore flow pattern will otherwise continue through the remainder of the week. The onshore flow will strengthen along with a build in seas this weekend. Will likely be looking for at least SCEC conditions with respect to winds, (possibly SCA for seas that may be approaching 7 feet) by Friday night and continuing through the weekend. Winds and seas will likely become hazardous to small craft. DS/12
