CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — Good morning and Happy Thursday!
Morning low temperatures were riding 5-10ºF above average. With plentiful humidity, our Thursday feels more like summer once again today. A weak cold front is headed our way, but it won't do very much to change our overall weather pattern. The first half of our day will be dry with a mix of sun and clouds, then we'll have a short window of isolated showers and thunderstorms from about 3-6 p.m.. Rain will begin out west in the Brush Country and advance toward the coastline.
"Summer Junior" continues through the weekend. Temperatures will hover near 90ºF with ample humidity. As our second cold front begins to inch closer, rain chances pick up starting Sunday. Monday and Tuesday look to be fairly rainy days; accumulations are going to be very generous, with some communities getting 2-3 (or even more) inches of rainfall! Once the front moves through next week cooler, drier air will settle in behind, bringing beautiful Fall-like weather our way for Wednesday. Sunny with afternoon highs in the 70s— sounds great!
Heads up: coastal flooding and a high risk of rip currents is expected through Saturday and Tropical Storm Karl makes landfall in Mexico.
Have a great day!
