Rain ending ahead of Saturday's cold front

WEATHER IMPACT ALERT | Tropical development possible in the NW Gulf of Mexico early next week. Heavy rain potential returns to the forecast Tuesday and Wednesday.

BEAUMONT, Texas — One more day of rain in the forecast before beautiful weather moves in for the next couple of days.

Forecast Discussion


Saturday, dry weather is expected with partly cloudy skies as a cold front arrives.

Sunday and Monday Mornings look cool with lows in the lower to middle 60s with pleasantly warm afternoons and no rain.

We're issuing WEATHER IMPACT ALERTS for Wednesday and Thursday due to the potential for heavy rainfall and breezy winds.  A tropical wave, currently over the Yucatan Peninsula, will move into the Southwest Gulf of Mexico Saturday.  Sunday it may turn northwest and slowly organize.  By Monday, it could develop into a depression or tropical storm as it head towards the Texas Coast or Louisiana.  Ahead of the possible storm, there will be quite a bit of southwesterly wind shear over the state.  So, if this does indeed forms and heads towards the South or Mid Texas Coast, it'll be on a weakening trend and will be quickly moving east after it moves ashore and not stall.  This will spread likely rains over SE Texas Tuesday and Wednesday with the potential for several inches.  

By Friday of next week, pretty typical weather is forecast with warm, humid conditions.
