Marine Weather and Tide Forecast for Longview, TX

DISCUSSION
Issued at 1235 AM CST Sun Nov 8 2026

The approaching upper low continues to rotate over over Mexico, just east of the Sea of Cortez. A lead short wave piece of energy in the pattern has some light rain showers nearby in N TX. We have added a slight mention for this reach eastward, during this overnight period and into the very early morning hours today, for several of our east TX counties. This all lines up with latest HRRR and the new 00Z runs as well. Amounts will on the very light side through mid morning, but are too close to dismiss.

Meanwhile, surface high pressure continues to sprawl across the southern plain, midSouth and Ohio Valley. We will continue with the similar pattern of cool temps, with a mix of sun and clouds into Monday. The weakening parent low will continue to drift east northeast across Texas as our winds begin to vary a bit off of the pronounced NE prevailing direction, as the high pressure modifies and weakens a bit in the coming days. The GFS remains a little more interested in keep a core upper low while the ECMWF opens up to more of a weak shear axis. Accordingly, the GFS is a little more organized with a QPF signal, albeit very light. The latest run now has flipped back again to a little better signal for midweek, as the kicker of the next strong cold front arrives in our Four State area. By this time next weekend, the core of a fresh Canadian air mass will be centered over the boot of AR/LA and could bring some widespread frost to parts of the area, mainly along and east of I-49. Our forecast will continue remain on the cool, but on the drier side of the usually wetter season. /24/

VFR conditions will continue through the 08/12Z TAF period. Areas of -RA that has been shifting E through ECntrl TX early this morning continues to diminish attm, but may result in periodic instances of -RA or sprinkles across the E TX terminals through mid-morning before diminishing. As a result, cu cigs have developed across the Wrn sections of E TX including TYR, with various low AC cigs between 8-12kft also persistent across E TX and portions of NW LA, which should linger through at least the afternoon before eventually scattering out over all but the TYR/LFK terminals. The AC cigs here should persist through the remainder of the TAF period, with cirrus cigs prevalent elsewhere across the region through Monday. Vrb winds 5kts or less today will become Lt/Vrb or calm after 00Z. /15/
