.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 200 PM CDT Wed Jun 3 2026

Scattered to widespread showers and storms capable of producing
1-3 inches of rainfall continue to move inland this afternoon 
along the sea breeze front. Hi-res guidance depicts the convection
to migrate into the northern portions of the CWA through this
evening.

Overall weak high pressure remains over the area but with ample
onshore flow bringing in plenty of moisture along with a lot of 
instability will prime the environment for daily shower and storm
activity through the end of the week. The stronger storms will 
generally be very efficient rain makers so there could be some 
potential of heavy rainfall and increasing flooding threat going
into this weekend. In addition to the stormy weather, 
temperatures will be at or above the normal for the highs this 
time of year. Some of the storms might locally relieve areas of 
the highest temps but otherwise we'll be seeing high 80s to low 
90s for much of this week.

AM showers developing along the coast and spreading further inland
during the afternoon. PROB30 for TSRA in for all sites from around

.MARINE...
Issued at 605 AM CDT Wed Jun 3 2026

Deep, moist air in place will lead to intermittent periods of 
showers and thunderstorms for the next several days. East 
northeast to east southeast winds will increase Thursday and 
Friday. With a long fetch in place, look for wave heights to build
as a longer period swell moves into the waters. Small Craft 
Advisories may be needed at times. The rip current risk will 
increase along area beaches as winds/seas pick up. Winds will 
return to a more southerly direction this weekend.
