Drier air moves in for Wednesday through Friday with only isolated rain chances the next few days. Another tropical wave will move west through the Gulf and to the coast of Mexico by Saturday. Ahead of it, tropical moisture will increase and south Texas will see widely scattered showers and t-storms Saturday and Sunday. The ridge of high pressure aloft strengthens this weekend which will keep our temperatures above average with higher humidity as the onshore flow increases and winds become breezy this weekend.
