CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — Happy Juneteenth! Today is also the last day of spring and the start of daily opportunities for rain.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
- Gusts to 30 mph late afternoon
- 'Feels like' temps in the low to middle 100s
- Limited rainfall accumulations
Temps will rise a bit more slowly this morning with afternoon highs near 90°F. Highs will be a few degrees cooler due to breezy and humid conditions and more cloud coverage. Heat risk will be minor to moderate (1-2 out of 4) across the Coastal Bend.
Thursday marks the start of daily rain chances well into next week. Our next best chance for rain still looks to be Friday. Southern neighborhoods will receive the most rain through the weekend with accumulations up to one-quarter inch possible (not much, but it helps). I'll continue to track the rainfall trend; some model guidance suggests better totals by the middle of next week. Juneteeth celebrations should still include plenty of hydration and SPF 30 or better!
