.DISCUSSION...

Very little change from the previous forecast package. Another round
of isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms is in the
forecast today courtesy of a weak passing disturbance and increased
tropical moisture over the region. Showers are progged to begin to
develop over the marine zones in the the next few hours, before
drifting inland closer to daybreak. Highest chances can be expected
along the Coastal Bend in the morning, then shifting westward in the
afternoon hours. Moisture drops off over the weekend with PWATs
falling from around 1.8-1.9" today to near 1.3-1.5" by Saturday
night into Sunday, limiting our rain chances to brief streamer
morning showers. Although moisture begins to recover early next
week, rain chances will be higher towards the middle of the week
when PWATs rise again to around 2.0" while a few weaknesses drift
across aloft.

Temperatures will be near seasonal levels for this time of year,
with highs generally in the 90s to near 100 degrees, and overnight
lows mostly in the 70s. Therefore, our risk for heat related impacts
will be minor to moderate through next week.

Based on observations from buoys 19 and 20 registering swell heights
at around 3-4 ft with 7-8 seconds swell periods, went ahead and
increased the risk of rip currents to Moderate for today.

(06Z TAFS)
Issued at 1221 AM CDT Fri Jun 20 2025

Streaks of MVFR ceilings are moving northwestward across the Coastal
Plains. There will likely be frequent bounces between MVFR/VFR
through 15Z before VFR conditions prevail outside of any
showers/storms. Given persistence, ALI may briefly experience MVFR
vsby but model guidance doesn`t want to give it more than a 20%
chance. Moisture is a tad greater today than yesterday, resulting in
rain chances around 30% persisting through the day today across the
Coastal Plains and therefore kept PROB30s for most likely time
window for direct shower/storm impacts. Southeasterly winds will
increase to around 15 knots with gusts to 25 knots this afternoon.

.MARINE...
Issued at 1221 AM CDT Fri Jun 20 2025

A generally moderate to at times gentle onshore breeze (BF 3-4) can
be expected across the coastal waters through early next week. Rain
chances will be moderate today (30-50%), followed by low to
moderate chances over the weekend (20-40%). Chances will then
increase again to moderate early to mid next week.
