The show starts at 11 A.M. with the Blue Angels performing at 3 P.M. Heading into the afternoon we should see a broken layer of clouds at the low and mid levels of the atmosphere. Cirrus clouds are expected to coat the higher levels of the sky. A low or high show is likely on Saturday.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>TEXAS SANDFEST: Lighter wind and mostly cloudy skies will make it an enjoyable day at the beach.

It will be much cooler with more clouds on Sunday.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>WINGS OVER SOUTH TEXAS:\u00a0Overcast skies are expected in the low layers of the atmosphere. A flat or low show is likely on Sunday. Wind will be lighter inland, around 10-20 mph with gusts of 25-30 mph. Most of the rain will likely come before noon on Saturday, but off-and-on showers are possible all day.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>TEXAS SANDFEST: 40 mph wind gusts, minor coastal flooding, and scattered showers are expected, especially in the morning. Most of the rain will likely come before noon, but off-and-on showers are possible all day.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>RAIN CONTINUES:\u00a0Off-and-on rain is likely through Tuesday morning. The cold front starts the unsettled pattern on Saturday, but the upper-level energy is why we will continue to see off-and-on rain showers. The exact timing of the rain is difficult to predict because it depends on waves of energy moving through the upper levels of the atmosphere. Right now, the morning hours look to see the most energy, but that timing can change.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"photo__main\" loading=\"eager\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/d70e5584-209b-4c18-b0ea-09269588243b_1140x641.jpg\"  alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The rainfall range varies between 0.2 and 4 inches.
