| Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Corpus Christi TX 150am CDT Sat April 11 2026 Issued at 138am CDT Sat April 11 2026 An active weather pattern is evident across the country with as a mid-level trough affecting the northeastern states followed by another strong disturbance just off the Pacific NW coast. A few shortwaves out ahead of this system with plenty of PVA will bring additional low to moderate rain/thunderstorm chances to the region through the beginning of next week. A shortwave west of Texas and a surface trough in the vicinity associated with this robust system will interact with abundant moisture (PWATs (Precipitable Waters) ~1.9) that may result in some severe thunderstorms. As a result, Storm Prediction Center has included most of the Brush Country and Rio Grande Plains under a Slight risk (level 2 out of 5) for severe weather on Sunday with rest of the CWA (County Warning Area) under a Marginal risk (level 1 out of 5). Strong winds and large hail will be the primary threats through Sunday evening. Rain/storm chances quickly taper off by Monday as the system exits the region accompanied by a warming trend with afternoon highs getting into the low to mid 90s across much of the region late in the week. Minor coastal flooding is expected to continue to be an issue during times of high tide through the weekend. Water has been reaching the dunes leading up to times of high tide and has been slow to recede. Longer period swells up to around has contributed to Minor Coastal Flooding and a high risk of rip currents. As a result of these conditions have gone ahead and issued a Coastal Flood Advisory and a Marine Issued at 138am CDT Sat April 11 2026 A Moderate to Fresh (BF 4-5) onshore flow will dominate the forecast through much of next week. Expect low to moderate rain chances over the waters Saturday through early Monday with dry conditions the remainder of the week. Showers and thunderstorms largely expected Saturday and Sunday afternoons with strong to severe thunderstorms possible with damaging winds as the main hazard. Fire Weather Issued at 138am CDT Sat April 11 2026 Low to moderate rain/thunderstorm chances across the region continue through Monday morning. The Brush Country and Rio Grande Plains are under a Slight risk (level 2 out of 5) for severe weather on Sunday with rest of South Texas under a Marginal risk (level 1 out of 5). Strong winds and large hail will be the primary threats through Sunday evening. Due to the abundant moisture and precipitation chances, elevated fire weather is not expected at this time. NOAA Corpus Christi TX Office: Watches - Warnings - Advisories TX...Coastal Flood Advisory from 1pm this afternoon to 9pm CDT this evening for TXZ245-342>347-442-443-447.
