Rain Chances Across Texas This Weekend

The approaching upper-level disturbance from the Pacific is set to increase rain chances across South-Central Texas. While daytime hours on Friday may remain mostly dry, the likelihood of showers and storms escalates into the evening and continues through Saturday morning.

For the Coastal Bend, muggy conditions will precede the rainfall, which is expected to peak from midday to early evening on Saturday. The northern neighborhoods stand to gain the most significant accumulations, offering a much-needed boost to the watershed. 2025 is on track to be one of the driest years on record for Corpus Christi, making this rainfall particularly vital.

Looking ahead, long-term models suggest the arrival of a fall-like front early next week, potentially bringing cooler air by the middle of the week. This front will first be noticeable in the Coastal Bend late Tuesday, with slightly cooler than average temperatures.
