cold front moving southward across Texas will bring noticeably cooler weather to Corpus Christi and nearby areas by Thursday morning. Residents can expect temperatures to drop to the 50s overnight, with lows around 50 degrees in some areas. Northeasterly winds, reaching up to 20 mph, will contribute to the chill, making it feel cooler than the thermometer reads.
According to the National Weather Service in Corpus Christi, temperatures will continue to fall through early Thursday morning, with colder, breezier conditions prevailing. Those commuting early or heading out for morning activities should layer up and be prepared for a brisk start to the day. Daytime highs on Thursday are forecasted to hover in the upper 60s to low 70s, offering a significant contrast to recent warmer days.
Additionally, a Coastal Flood Advisory remains in effect through Thursday morning, with up to one foot of coastal inundation possible along bays and intracoastal waterways. High tides could lead to road flooding in low-lying areas, particularly near Corpus Christi’s coastal routes. Drivers should exercise caution, especially near flood-prone roadways along the coast.
For beachgoers, conditions will remain mostly sunny with a low rip current risk. However, water levels are expected to rise by this afternoon, likely reaching the dunes. If you plan to visit the beach, stay aware of your surroundings and avoid venturing too close to the shoreline.
Looking ahead, Corpus Christi’s five-day forecast anticipates a return to moderate temperatures over the weekend, with highs in the upper 70s and mostly sunny skies. The cool front moving through today will moderate by Friday, allowing for warmer temperatures to resume by early next week.
