Warmer than normal temperatures will continue through the weekend
along with isolated showers and thunderstorms. Activity expected
to peak during the afternoon hours with daytime heating.
Southeasterly flow will prevail in the low levels this weekend,
bringing a deeper layer of Gulf moisture into SE Texas. Rain
chances will increase as a result of the influx of moisture. With
the plume of moisture coming from the south, expect the coastal
areas up to the Houston Metro to experience the higher chances of
rain to start. Most activity is expected to be in the afternoon
hours, again with peak daytime heating. As mentioned by previous
forecaster, NW flow aloft tends to be tricky for this area, so
will need to monitor the northern areas for any embedded
shortwaves in the overall flow. Any such event could trigger
thunderstorms in that area. NBM came in a bit higher than
previously forecasted, so it seems to be catching up to the other
deterministic models that have suggested an increase in PoPs. In
any case, expect the weather pattern to transition to become more
active over the next few days.

(00Z TAF Issuance)
Issued at 628 PM CDT Thu Sep 18 2025
Showers are expected to diminish gradually by sunset, leading to
a quiet night with light and variable winds. Some fog will be
possible near sunrise at KCXO and KLBX. Winds will pick up after
mid/late Friday morning, reaching speeds of 8 to 12 knots in the
afternoon. A few showers and storms will be possible in the
afternoon, but aren`t included in TAFs due to low confidence in
timing and coverage. Aside from a brief MVFR period due to fog
early in the morning, VFR conditions are expected to prevail for
the majority of this TAF cycle.
