Corpus Christi, Texas – South Texas residents could feel a dramatic weather swing over the next 48 hours as temperatures surge toward summerlike levels this weekend before a strong cold front sweeps through early Monday.
According to the National Weather Service in Corpus Christi, temperatures will steadily warm across the Coastal Bend through Sunday afternoon. Highs in Corpus Christi, Kingsville, and Alice could reach the mid to upper 90s Sunday, with some inland locations approaching 99°F during the afternoon heat.
The warm conditions will peak Sunday before a cold front arrives late Sunday night into early Monday morning, quickly shifting winds and bringing a sharp drop in temperatures.
Behind the front, Monday will feel dramatically cooler across the region. High temperatures are expected to fall into the 60s across much of South Texas, a drop of more than 30 degrees compared to Sunday’s peak heat. Winds will also increase across the Coastal Bend, producing breezy to windy conditions throughout Monday.
Communities including Corpus Christi, Port Aransas, Rockport, and Victoria could experience gusty winds through the afternoon, particularly along coastal highways and bridges where crosswinds may affect drivers.
Conditions should stabilize by Tuesday as temperatures gradually recover into the mid-60s to mid-70s, followed by warmer weather returning by midweek.
