Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Houston/Galveston TX 701pm CST Sunday Nov 10 2024 Long Term (Tuesday through next Saturday) Issued at 236pm CST Sunday Nov 10 2024 The mid to upper level ridge is expected to be slightly weaker on Tuesday, but very dry air along the mid levels and not enough moisture on the surface, should keep our rain chances rather limited during the day. There is the potential for some low level moisture to move into Southeast Texas late Tuesday as Post-Tropical Storm Rafael tracks further west to southwest across the southern Gulf of Mexico, but it does not look sufficient enough to result in much rainfall, other than some light passing (isolated) showers. Temperatures, however, will cool off a couple of degrees on Tuesday, with highs forecast to be mainly in the upper 70s to low 80s. Late Tuesday into Wednesday, a mid to upper level trough is expected to move across the Southern Plains and an associated cold front would then track southeastward into the Central Texas. The cold front could move into Southeast Texas sometime late Wednesday, and with the added lift and increase in moisture ahead of the front, we might be able to see some showers and isolated thunderstorms developing throughout the day. Conditions will be a little warmer as well, with highs expected to be roughly in the upper 70s to low 80s north of I-10 and in the low to mid 80s along and south of I-10. Rain chances should end by Wednesday night and northerly winds will increase on Thursday. The temperature forecast for Thursday and Friday, however, will highly depend on whether the front is strong enough to pull in drier and cooler air into our local area. The inconsistencies between some of the global models are still very apparent today. Will continue to carry NBM temperatures for the time being, with highs in the low 70s over the Piney s region and the mid to upper 70s elsewhere (except areas around Jackson counties who may still have highs in the low 80s). If the Cold Air Advection turns out to be stronger, the temperatures will likely be slightly cooler than the current forecast. On Saturday, warmer conditions may occur as southerly winds return along with an increase in low level moisture. Marine Issued at 236pm CST Sunday Nov 10 2024 Swell associated to Post-Tropical Storm Rafael, located over the central Gulf of Mexico, will continue to subside through Monday as the system tracks south-southwest and weakens. Small Craft Advisory for the offshore waters remains in effect through this evening. Light to moderate northeast to east winds will prevail through Wednesday. Periods of showers and isolated thunderstorms are possible Tuesday night into Wednesday as a weak cold front approaches Southeast Texas. The frontal boundary could move into the coastal waters sometime late Wednesday, but confidence on the timing and how far into the waters the front will track, is low at this time. If the front does push through the Gulf waters, then we can expect moderate to strong north-northeast winds and elevated seas on Thursday. Onshore flow and rain chances may return during the upcoming weekend.
