Corpus Christi, TX – Showers and thunderstorms are expected to increase in intensity throughout Thursday, as a Flood Watch remains in effect for the Coastal Bend and Victoria Crossroads until 1 p.m. Localized flooding is possible in low-lying areas, and residents are urged to stay vigilant and avoid driving on flooded roads.
According to the National Weather Service, rain will begin to taper off by this evening as storms move offshore, though another round of showers could hit coastal areas later tonight. Daytime highs will reach 85°F to 95°F across the region, with nighttime temperatures cooling to the 70s.
The risk of flooding is significant, particularly in neighborhoods with poor drainage. Officials advise residents to secure loose outdoor items and check emergency supplies in case conditions worsen. Any flooded roadways should be avoided, as it can be difficult to gauge water depth.
Friday is expected to bring drier conditions, though scattered showers remain possible into the weekend. Rain chances increase again Sunday, bringing a renewed flood risk. Stay informed through local weather alerts and continue to exercise caution while driving in wet conditions.
