However, near the coast, most Suncoast residents will again see sunny skies and a rain free late afternoon. The chance for coastal showers will be confined to just a few hours in the late morning and early afternoon. The storms that do form will bring rainfall amounts on the light side.

DISCUSSION: Scattered showers and storms are likely this afternoon across East Texas. High temperatures will climb into the lower 90s with lows tonight falling into the low to mid 70s. Decent rain chances will stick around on Wednesday with more showers and storms expected.

Tuesday evening will see scattered storms all the way until the latter half of 8 PM with the sun officially setting. Like Monday, these storms will diminish as we lose the energy from the sun, but isolated sprinkles through the first half of the overnight will be around.
