Marine Weather and Tide Forecast for Richland Hills, TX

SHORT TERM
(Today through Wednesday)
Issued at 1230 AM CDT Tue Jun 9 2026

North and Central Texas will remain on the periphery of a 590-592 dam ridge through the short-term forecast period. This will allow breezy south winds and hot, muggy conditions to continue through at least Wednesday. Expect a low stratus intrusion late tonight into Tuesday morning and again Tuesday night into Wednesday morning with overnight lows in the low to mid 70s. Clouds will scatter and clear by early afternoon each day with highs approaching the low to mid 90s both Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons. Many locations reached or exceeded heat index values of 105 degrees Monday afternoon. Surface dewpoints are expected to be a bit lower Tuesday afternoon and will likely keep most locations from reaching/exceeding heat indices of 105 degrees again (would necessitate a Heat Advisory if this were to occur).
Nonetheless, many locations will likely approach heat indices near 100 degrees, so do take caution if you plan on being outside for prolonged periods of time this afternoon. Seabreeze shower/storm activity will make a run for our Brazos Valley counties both Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons as well. Any lingering precipitation will quickly diminish after sunset each evening.

LONG TERM
(Wednesday Night and Beyond)
Issued at 1230 AM CDT Tue Jun 9 2026

Thursday will feature more hot and mostly rain-free conditions.
However, by Thursday night, troughing over the Central Plains will begin to break down and weaken the ridge over North Texas allowing a cold front to approach the Red River Valley by Friday morning. This boundary will likely provide a focus for scattered showers and thunderstorms, primarily north of I-20, through Friday afternoon (30-50% chance). Forecasted QPF through Friday remains fairly minimal at this time, but a few locations may pick up a quick 0.5-1" of rain near the Red River early Friday. Beyond Friday, model guidance continues to highlight a shift to a more active weather pattern Sunday into early next week that will bring multiple chances for rain, potentially heavy rainfall. Keep your eye on the forecast through the week, especially if you have outdoor plans during the upcoming weekend.

AVIATION
(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 1230 AM CDT Tue Jun 9 2026

VFR will prevail for the next several hours until SCT to BKN cigs at 1-2 kft overspread much of North and Central Texas after 08Z early this morning (closer to 10Z within the Metroplex). The terminals may bounce in between MVFR and VFR through 16Z, but we have opted to keep MVFR prevailing in the TAF instead of trying to time a TEMPO group. After 16Z, cigs will quickly lift and scatter to VFR status through the remainder of Tuesday afternoon and evening. Seabreeze showers/storms will approach the Brazos Valley, but should remain southeast of KACT. Otherwise, expect south winds at 10-15 kts through the TAF period with occasional gusts up to 20 kts during the day.

SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT
Spotter activation is not expected at this time.
