throughout how fast it is rough
start to collapse as well scary
now that's not fun, I would

that's where I live down here
in Texas will enjoy that for
sure I let's talk about what we
saw for today temperatures out
there on the warm side 75 in a
Continental 74 at hobby Galveston around 71, so
certainly not record setting
temperatures but as you
mentioned very spring-like and
that's going remain over the next couple of days. I think
we'll see much change and that
in fact notice for the most
part we get that Southeast wind
that's got the temperatures
kind of holding in the mid
upper 60's. This is likely
where they'll sit maybe drop a
degree or 2 that's about it.
I don't think there's going to
be much too much of the
night tonight in fact the winds
may say somewhat elevated I
think we're going public.
He police to 1015 mile an hour
wind as you get down towards
Galveston Angleton as well and
that's where we'll start to see
some of the sea fog moving
inland right now
fairly quiet at the start of
the showers that will show you
if we do happen to see any of
that fog will be out there for
the most part
don't think we're going to see
as I said not much change in
the temperature Fox let's get a
little more widespread as we
get towards tomorrow morning.
One of the reasons why that is
is because that Southeast wind
has been pumping in all the
moisture more moisture in the
air that means the dew points
get higher the higher the dew
points get in the air
temperature doesn't fall they
get real close to each other
that's when we get some of the
dense fog and that's what we
think we'll see over the next
couple of mornings so that said
noticed by tomorrow morning.
Still holding around 6667
degrees and the jumping up into
the mid 70's as we get to
tomorrow afternoon now
could we see a couple of stray
showers absolutely 20% chance
similar to what we saw today
the be very light don't expect
to see much change and that
it's really Tuesday Wednesday
is the time frame when we start
to see that system come on
through now farm wise what will
likely be looking at is
especially West and South down
around the coast. I think
that's where we'll see the
impact especially by around
sunrise could see those uh
visibility is down to about it
half a mile 2 quarters of a
mile in some spots, 3 quarters
on Highland Galveston that
should start to improve as we
get later on into the morning
and welcome to rinse and repeat
that over the next couple of
days, Jack tracks fairly quiet
got a few showers trying to pop
as you get over towards the
East Texas pecan widen
things out and show you what's
happening here is our low that
we're going to keep a track on
for Tuesday and Wednesday and
notice we've got this will
stream the Pacific moisture
that's moving in as well put
those 2 together
that is what could be dealing
with a recipe for some heavier
rain potential now,
here's kind of what it looks
like we're going to take a
bigger picture I want to show
you 2 different scenarios of
what we may see some
by Tuesday that front is
stretching just to the north of
us it's going bring some
showers a few thunderstorms but
it's really Tuesday night into
Wednesday, when this low tracks
on
on through now. Once that moves
closer to us here 2 scenarios
if this area of low pressure
stays a little further inland
most the heavy rain is going to
be north of Houston up around
Dallas. But if it starts to
track a little
further South. Let's say moves
around Corpus well then the
further South you get that
heavy rain potential could move
a little further South right
now the way that it looks like
is it is going to stay a little
further north of us.
That's our future cast.
Rainfall totals for the most of
the area here anywhere between
half an inch to
an inch notice the 2 to 3 is up
near Dallas if that happens the
shift a little further South
expect these colors allowed the
heavier rain potential to
continue to shift a little
further South as well so it's
something we'll have to watch
over the next couple of days in
fortune know
fortune know that's when the primary is on
Tuesday folks that are voting
and the start of rodeo as well
so it's going to be sloppy both
Tuesday and Wednesday so
just keep yourself whether
where both those days, good
news is
news is by Thursday Friday and into
Saturday for the first weekend
We're looking good, nice cool
mornings in Florida in the 50's

really kind of like that get
through the clouds yet we're
going to see the same thing
tomorrow probably not much
change in the forecast,
especially overnight. We'll see

the fog starts to move in as
well right now we haven't seen
a whole lot of visibilities are
anywhere from around 7, 8,
miles an hour. It's
fairly good. But I do expect us
to start to create or as we
head to early tomorrow morning
might see a quick shower or 2
that's about it otherwise
overcast is how we'll start the
day like where we're going to
finish as well as we head in

that chance will go up as we

temperature, the water is only
about 45 degrees so it was
chilly that's for sure you can
see
see Williams tower there's got the
old beacon out tonight in
anticipation that we're likely
going to see the clouds start
to settle down. We'll start to
see some fog out there tonight
as well one of the reasons why
these temps
these temps teachers there slowly falling
back into the low 60's which is
right about where the dew
point is it's fairly quiet out
there now in terms of fog
visibilities are all okay about
7, 8, 9.10 miles 10 miles of
Max, when you see the 10 on the
board. That's good but I do
expect some of these start to
create or as we head in towards
the rest of the night
tonight, including especially
down at the coast and further
out West as well with Dew
points are little
higher and that's a very
important number because is
that in the air temperature get
real close together that's when
you get that dense
fog so tomorrow morning if
you're headed out 05:06AM, or
us for sure before sunrise do
be ready for some of that fog
out there. Attorneys on burial
have most of that for you and
then as we get through the rest
the morning. We'll see that
start to wind down should be
a-ok temperatures as I
mentioned not much change from
what we saw earlier this
evening, they're all sitting in
the mid 60's out there and
that's about where those set of
the
the dew points as I said are all in
the low 60's and so as those
Dew points in the air
temperatures start to get
closer together. That's when
the farm will start to really
start to move in so that said
showers likely will as well,
but they'll be
very very light overnight
tonight into tomorrow even by
tomorrow afternoon it still got
us about a 20% chance.
I don't think we're going to
see much in the way of any kind
of heavier rain notice the
temperatures get back up into
the mid 70's so more
spring-like conditions and a
little bit of rain that we're
seeing out there now is moving
its way over in towards East
Texas and eventually into
Louisiana, this is what we're
going to keep watch on
this little area of low
pressure just south of Los
Angeles right now bring some
wet weather across la but
notice that this little more
called in Avenue so to speak as
Pacific moisture that low's
going to track its way across
Mexico
Mexico and eventually work on closer
to us as it does that's what we
expect to see it took up with
this front that will stall out
just a bit now the question and
I mentioned this earlier is is
where does attract from there
if it tracks a little further
North it will keep the heavy
rain up near Dallas of the
tracks a little further South
that puts us into play
for seeing more potential for
some heavier pockets of rain
versus if it's just going to be
you know scattered showers and
thunderstorms moving on through
so we still have a couple of
days to track this which
is good. We will do so but do
know Tuesday Wednesday likely
are going to be fairly
unsettled days both days
I think pretty much fair game
for that now how much rain
we'll see from that same story
if it tracks North
heavy 2, 3, 4 inches stays up
near Dallas of it's a little
closer to us we'll move that
further South right now we'll
kind of go glass
half full. 18 inch to an inch
and a half we need the rain to
we've got some spots out there
they're getting unusually dry in terms of the drought monitor
so little sloppy start not only
for the primary thinking about
voting. But of course for the
start of radio as well
and then as we get into
Thursday Friday and Saturday
much better looking weather
keep those overnight lows, nice
and cool in the low 50's and
afternoon highs,
afternoon highs, fairly comfortable in the low
70's. So as we said also see an
wouldn't be rodeo unless we had
one or 2 nasty days to be exact
