CORPUS CHRISTI, Tx — Good Evening, Coastal Bend! We had a nice, warm day with temperatures topping out in the low 80s here in Corpus Christi. Warmer temperatures are on the way to wrap up the week.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

We are warming up across the Coastal Bend this March with temperatures expected to hit the 90s by Friday. While we have already had one day this month in the 90s, drier and warmer conditions are not ideal for fire danger weather. Rain would be helpful but we have another dry week ahead.

Wednesday, we will see more gusty winds similar to this afternoon and evening. Thursday, we start warming up to the upper 80s, finally hitting the low 90s by Friday. Our more southern and western communities will heat up more and be close to triple-digit weather.
