Get ready for some rain and cooler temperatures.
A cold front will move through Deep South Texas and the Rio Grande Valley overnight and into early Thursday morning.
This front will be more of an impact than the front last week because this time there will be rain and a significant drop in temperature.
Showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop with the passage of the cold front during the overnight and morning hours. The rain should subside by Thursday afternoon as the cold front moves offshore.
Some area will see heavy rainfall near the stronger thunderstorms. The forecast calls for 1 to 2 inches of rain with some areas experiencing 1 to 2 inch per hour.
The change in temperate will be 20 to 30 degrees from today to Thursday when they’ll fall into 50s and 60s.
Forecasters say the thunderstorms will produce gusty winds and occasional lightning this evening into tonight.
Heavy rainfall may produce minor flooding in the usual low-lying areas of the Valley. There is also an elevated risk of rip currents along all area beaches. Minor coastal flooding is possible Thursday into Saturday, especially near high tide cycles.
