Marine Weather and Tide Forecast for West Tawakoni, TX

SHORT TERM
(This evening through Sunday)
Issued at 202 PM CDT Sat May 30 2026

A weak ridge over the Southern Plains will maintain mostly quiet and warm weather across North and Central Texas through the rest of the weekend. Mid and high cloud cover will continue streaming overhead, but this should have little impact on our sensible weather. Some precipitation has been falling from the clouds across our western counties, however, a dry mid-layer has led to much of the precipitation evaporating before reaching the ground.

A dryline will remain well to the west of our area this afternoon and evening. A few storms may develop across western Oklahoma to western North Texas (outside of our area) during peak heating, however, the strongest forcing will remain displaced northwest of our region. A low chance for a storm to approach the far northwestern counties will be maintained, but most locations will remain dry.

Any activity that develops should weaken after sunset as inhibition increases and storms move away from the better instability/forcing overlap. Otherwise, tonight will be warm and quiet with lows in the lower to mid 70s.

Sunday will be similar, with the ridge axis just to our east and temperatures again climbing into the lower to mid 90s. A dryline will sharpen to our west and northwest during the afternoon, however, forcing and convergence should remain weak over our area.
An isolated storm cannot be ruled out near the far northwestern zones late Sunday afternoon and evening, but confidence is low and most of North and Central Texas should remain rain-free.

Sunday night will be warm and humid with continued southerly flow and lows mostly in the lower to mid 70s.

LONG TERM
(Sunday night through next Friday)
Issued at 202 PM CDT Sat May 30 2026

Above normal temperatures will continue into early next week as weak ridging remains in place across the Southern Plains. Highs Monday will generally be in the low to mid 90s with heat index values a few degrees higher.

Moisture will gradually increase Monday into Tuesday with the first low-end storm chances returning across our Central Texas counties on Tuesday. This is due to a weakening of the ridge, allowing for weak disturbances to move through the region. Storm coverage during this period still appears scattered rather than widespread, with daily chances generally driven by daytime heating, weak impulses aloft and any lingering boundaries. Severe weather potential remains uncertain and does not appear focused at this time, through stronger storms could produce gusty winds, small hail, lightning and brief heavy rainfall.

Rain chances may increase slightly by Friday into next weekend as weak troughing approaches from the west and the ridge shifts east.
Temperatures should remain warm, with highs mostly in the upper 80s to lower 90s where rain chances are higher and low to mid 90s where rain coverage remains limited.
