THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST TEXAS.
.DAY ONE…THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT
SHOULD ENOUGH INSTABILITY DEVELOP…THERE IS A RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS TONIGHT AS THE NEXT STORM SYSTEM MOVES INTO THE AREA FROM THE WEST. THE MOST FAVORABLE TIME PERIOD WOULD BE THIS EVENING UP UNTIL AROUND MIDNIGHT. HAIL WOULD BE THE PRIMARY THREAT…THOUGH STRONG WINDS AND EVEN AN ISOLATED TORNADO CANNOT BE COMPLETELY RULED OUT. CLOSER TO THE COAST…PATCHY DENSE SEA FOG IS POSSIBLE UNTIL THE WIND SHIFT AS WELL.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN…SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY
A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY IS LIKELY ON SATURDAY AS WINDS INCREASE AND SEAS BUILD. LOW TEMPERATURES MONDAY MORNING COULD BE AT OR BELOW FREEZING PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST TEXAS GENERALLY NORTH OF A COLUMBUS TO CLEVELAND LINE.
