545 PM CDT SAT JUL 18 2009

IF CONDITIONS BECOME UNREPRESENTATIVE...CONTACT THE NATIONAL WEATHER
SERVICE.

.DISCUSSION...
A COUPLE OF UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES MAY MOVE ACROSS SOUTHEAST
TEXAS OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS ALLOWING FOR INCREASED THUNDERSTORM
CHANCES. THE SEA BREEZE MAY ALSO BE ACTIVE ALLOWING FOR SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK. THE POSSIBLE RAIN
FALL MAY EASE SOME OF THE DROUGHT CONDITIONS BUT DRY FUELS WILL
LIKELY REMAIN THROUGH THE NEXT WEEK. THE THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY
MAY ALSO KEEP HIGH TEMPERATURES NEAR NORMAL INSTEAD OF THE UPPER
90S AS HAS BEEN THE CASE THE LAST FEW WEEKS.
