147 FXUS64 KBRO 130540 AAA AFDBRO Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Brownsville TX 1240 AM CDT Sun Jul 13 2025 ...New AVIATION... .DISCUSSION... Issued at 1025 PM CDT Sat Jul 12 2025 An area of high pressure over the Gulf will expand over Deep South Texas and the Rio Grande Valley. This will keep rain chances very low (less than 10%). However, a stray shower or thunderstorm with the afternoon seabreeze still remains possible. Southeasterly winds are expected to persist over the region through the forecast periods with winds gusting up to 25 mph possible for mostly the Valley and right along the coast. As for temperatures, the low temperatures are generally expected to be in the 70s for most of Deep South Texas and the Rio Grande Valley. However a few locations for the extreme Southern parts of the CWA could approach the 80s. The high temperatures are expected to generally be in the 90s, however a few places in Starr and Zapata counties could be in the triple digits. The heat risk for the forecast period will mostly be moderate (level 2 of 4) for the region. The heat indices are expected to be in the range of 105-108 and thus below Heat Advisory criteria. However it is still important to practice heat safety to prevent any heat-related illnesses. Increasing swell affecting the Lower Texas coast will allow for moderate risk of rip current for the next several days. Be careful if venturing into the water and remember rip currents are highest near piers and jetties. && .AVIATION...

No precipitation is anticipated. && .MARINE... Issued at 1025 PM CDT Sat Jul 12 2025 Generally favorable conditions are expected with light to moderate southeasterly winds and slight to moderate seas. High pressure over the Lower Texas coast will keep rain chances to a minimum through the period. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
