A long fetch of moderate south and southeast winds will continue across the western Gulf through the weekend. This will drive up winds and seas along the upper Texas coast resulting in periods of Small Craft Advisory conditions. Rip current risk is expected to be high as well through the weekend. Decreasing winds and seas are expected late Sunday into Monday, before increasing somewhat by the middle of the week. Shower and thunderstorm chances will increase Sunday and continue into next week as increased Gulf moisture interacts with a series of upper level disturbances passing overhead. $$Texas Coastal Marine Forecast
