CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — Tropical moisture continues to move in from the Gulf as an upper-level wave of low pressure moves through south Texas.
Showers and thunderstorms will taper off Monday night but will pick up again early Tuesday becoming scattered to numerous through the morning and gradually shifting inland. Some could provide heavy rainfall.
Temperatures will stay below average Tuesday afternoon with highs in the upper 80s and a southeast breeze up to 15 mph.
As we head through the week, atmospheric moisture decreases as a ridge of high pressure aloft builds. Thundershowers will become more isolated and sunshine more abundant.
