Onshore flow has increased leading to the issuance of caution flags for the bays and Gulf waters through Wednesday morning. In the southern parts of the bays, some gusts near 25 kt will be possible at times through the evening hours. Isolated rain showers and a storm or two will be possible daily. Today, the best potential for showers or a storm looks to be in the vicinity of Matagorda Bay. Hazy conditions will also settle in during the latter half of the work week as a Saharan dust plume passes through the area. There will be a moderate risk of rip currents along Gulf facing beaches, rising to a high risk Friday evening into the weekend. $$ GMZ335-041430- Galveston Bay- 846 PM CDT Tue Jun 3 2025 ...Small Craft Should Exercise Caution... .REST OF TONIGHT...Southeast winds 15 to 20 knots, easing to around 15 knots.
