| Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Corpus Christi TX 155pm CDT Wednesday September 16 2026 Issued at 153pm CDT Wednesday September 16 2026 Fortunately for us, heat advisories look like they may be on a hiatus for the next few days. While moisture increases for Thursday, cloud cover and the potential for rain should limit temperatures and, thus, heat-related impacts. PWAT (Precipitable Water) values will increase to near 2.2" for Thursday, which could lead to some areas of heavy rainfall and localized flash flooding, particularly if the storms are slow-movers. Increased moisture and a low potential for rain will continue through Friday afternoon. Rain chances will drop to 5-20% by this weekend and into early next, with rain chances mainly along the seabreeze. Models show a long easterly fetch developing across the northern gulf waters this week which may help push water farther up the beaches. Will continue to monitor trends for slightly higher than normal tides and/or an increased rip current risk. At this time, minor coastal flooding is not anticipated but will continue to be monitored. Marine Issued at 153pm CDT Wednesday September 16 2026 A gentle to moderate (BF3-4) breeze is expected, with occasional periods of fresh (BF 5) breezes through early next week. Low to medium (20-45%) rain chances today and tonight with increase to a medium to high (30-70%) chance by Thursday, before decreasing to a low chance once again on Friday. Fire Weather Issued at 1220am CDT Wednesday September 16 2026 ERC values will improve to the 50-69th percentile for much of the region and remain at those levels through the end of the week. While ERC values will be decreasing, relative humidity values will be improving with 30-45% Wednesday and above 40% across all of South Texas Thursday into the weekend. Therefore, elevated fire weather conditions are not expected at this time. NOAA Corpus Christi TX Office: Watches - Warnings - Advisories TX...None. GM...None. |
