.Synopsis For High Island to the Matagorda Ship Channel Out 60 NM
including Galveston and Matagorda Bays.
Onshore winds will gradually strengthen this week, likely
requiring cautions and potentially Advisories. This will also
result in building seas. Rain chances return to the forecast
beginning on Wednesday, with showers and storms possible through
the end of the week and into next weekend.
Patchy fog remains possible in the northern portions of the Bays
over the next couple of nights, but dense marine fog is not
expected. At the shores, look for rip current risk and tidal
levels to increase towards the middle of the week along with the
increase in winds and seas.
