Marine Weather and Tide Forecast for Villa Pancho, TX

DISCUSSION
Issued at 1229 PM CDT Sat May 9 2026

Busy morning across Deep South Texas with the conditional severe threat finally becoming realized across much of the Rio Grande Valley. Supercell thunderstorms, including a long-lasting cell late this morning produced multiple rounds of severe and sub- severe hail in Zapata, Starr, Hidalgo, and Cameron counties, and likely multiple microbursts in both Hidalgo and Cameron counties.
Radar has mostly cleared, so have cleared POPs through the afternoon as well, since the atmosphere was pretty worked over. A little bit of a wake low has kicked some winds up behind the action across Cameron County. Expect that to drop off into the mid-late afternoon and turn back southeasterly.

The next frontal boundary dives south late Sunday night into Monday morning with a quick shot of showers and strong to severe thunderstorms. SPC has placed all of Deep South Texas into a Marginal (level 1 of 5) Risk of Severe Weather for this activity, with the best chance of severe weather occurring north of the ranchlands and further upstream. The main threats Sunday night into early Monday morning would once again be large hail and damaging winds. Will have to monitor anything developing north of the CWA

Morning temperatures behind the front dip back towards normal and slightly below normal through the remainder of the week, with highs dropping back into the mid to upper 80s Monday and Tuesday, before gradually warming through the remainder of the week.
Generally dry weather is expected late Monday afternoon through Friday.

Long period swell continues to drive a moderate risk of life- threatening rip currents along the lower Texas coast through the weekend and into early next week. There remains a Minor (level 1 of 4) to Moderate (level 2 of 4) Heat Risk across Deep South Texas through this weekend, with a Minor Heat Risk through most of next week.
