Corpus Christi, TX – Residents across the Texas coast are preparing for a week of cold temperatures, gusty winds, and the likelihood of rain. Wednesday brings highs in the mid-40s, with showers expected to develop by evening and continue into Thursday.
According to the National Weather Service, northeast winds will reach up to 26 mph midweek, making outdoor activities challenging. Drivers on I-37 and nearby roads should exercise caution, as rain and wind may create hazardous conditions. Temperatures will dip into the upper 30s overnight, remaining near freezing for areas north of Corpus Christi.
By Thursday, rain chances rise to 90%, with a high near 48°F. Coastal residents should prepare for slick roads and limited visibility during the morning and evening hours. While rain tapers off by Friday, temperatures remain chilly, with highs only reaching the low 50s.
The weekend offers some relief, with sunny skies returning Saturday and highs climbing into the low 60s by Sunday. Low rip current risks make it a safer time to visit the beaches, although water temperatures remain in the lower 60s.
Looking ahead, residents are encouraged to monitor changing weather conditions and bundle up during the chilly mornings. Ensure vehicles are equipped for wet roads, and stay updated through the National Weather Service for any sudden weather developments.
