Latest Weather Brief

Watch the Corpus Radar for developing showers. Mainly connected with the timing of the Sea Breeze and as predicted, scattered throughout the Coastal Bend.

Pretty much a repeat of yesterday's weather. One difference though is that we should see temperatures around 3-5 degrees cooler. Let's hope so. Highs today will be in the low 90s to near 100 out west. Tomorrow and Sunday highs will range in the mid 80s to mid 90s.

With regards to any rain, pretty much like yesterday. Moderate to high (50-70%) chance for showers/storms through the weekend. Looks like amounts will generally range from around .25" to 1". However during a possible thunderstorm could see some heavier downpours. Showers will be scattered with some not seeing any rain at all.

Current Tropics

At this time there is nothing of a tropical nature forecast for the Gulf of America. While we could use the rain, we hope the the Gulf remains quiet, tropical wise. Remember, we will not get to the peak of the 2025 tropical season until the 2nd week of September.

The first tropical wave in the Central Atlantic that the National Hurricane Center (NHC), AL90, is showing a 90% chance of development in the next 7 days.

All weather models continue to be in agreement that this wave, will take a northwestward track, turn north, and then northeast out to sea, not impacting the Gulf or the U.S east coast.

The 2nd wave, out in the far eastern Atlantic, designated as AL99, now has a 50% chance of development over the next 7 days. As we have been saying for the last week, we really do need to keep our eyes on this one.

The latest from the National Hurricane Center (NHC) is sort of changing its tune on AL99. Just yesterday, they were indicating that AL99 would basically enter an unfavorable area and just go away. This mornings update from the NHC now is backing away from that, saying "The wave could reach a slightly more favorable environment again late this weekend into early next week as it moves westward at 10 to 15 mph over the central tropical Atlantic and approaches the Lesser Antilles".

At this point, no one know the ultimate future of AL99. However, we do need to monitor this.

Forecasters that we watch very carefully are monitoring this very closely. It is a little early to know for sure yet. We should have more definitive information by the first part of next week.

Our website will keep a close eye on all of the tropical situations. The latest will be on our 'The Tropics' page.
