.SYNOPSIS FOR THE MIDDLE TEXAS COASTAL WATERS...

A brief lull in rain chances is expected tonight through much of the
day Monday before low to medium (20-50%) rain chances return Monday
night through Wednesday. Moderate to fresh (BF 4-5) east-
southeasterly winds, with occasional strong (BF 6) gusts, will
persist through Monday night ahead of the next approaching system.
These conditions have warranted the issuance of an SCA through
early Tuesday morning. Winds will ease on Tuesday, becoming light
to gentle (BF 2-3), before a stronger reinforcing front moves
offshore midweek. Behind the front, winds will shift to the north-
northeast and strengthen back to moderate to fresh (BF 4-5) with
intermittent strong (BF 6) gusts. This pattern is expected to hold
through Friday, after which onshore flow returns. Confidence
decreases heading into next weekend, but increasing moisture
associated with the renewed onshore flow and an approaching upper-
level disturbance may bring the next chance for rain along with
fresh to strong (BF 5-6) southeasterly winds.
