Marine Weather and Tide Forecast for Aransas Pass, TX

DISCUSSION
Issued at 1224 PM CDT Fri Oct 23 2026

Surface high pressure over the southeast US will dominate through the weekend and much of next week. This will keep east to southeasterly surface winds pumping low level moisture into the area. For the weekend, the mid-levels look quiet as high pressure currently in place starts to shift eastward late in the weekend.
There is a minor wave of vorticity noted especially around 700 mb tomorrow that could be enough to trigger a few showers, mainly inland, but we're not expecting much as the layer moisture is pretty limited. By Monday into Tuesday though, the mid-level pattern is transitioning and we'll get some weak surface shortwavesrotating around the ridge as well. This will give us our next notable chance of rain Monday night into Tuesday with medium chances (50-60%). At this time, there's no notable frontal boundaries in our near future, and temperatures remain pretty steady around seasonal levels, except Tuesday when we'll likely be a bit cooler.

MARINE
Issued at 1224 PM CDT Fri Oct 23 2026

Gentle to moderate (BF 3-4) east to southeast winds will prevail through much of the period, with occasionally fresh (BF 5)
conditions possible during the afternoon hours this weekend. Rain chances will remain minimal through Sunday before increasing to low to moderate levels early next work week as moisture deepens and disturbances move across the region.

FIRE WEATHER
Issued at 1224 PM CDT Fri Oct 23 2026

Elevated fire weather conditions are not anticipated through the period. Minimum RH values and winds are not expected to reach critical thresholds, thereby limiting fire weather concerns.
Increasing moisture early next week will lead to higher RH values and low to moderate rain chances. Temperatures will remain near normal.
