Last night, severe thunderstorms moved through the Coastal Bend. Those storms originated to our north and grew upscale into what's called a mesoscale convective system (a line of storms) as it came through. Sections of the line bulged and bowed forward as strong winds from within the storm rushed down to the surface. These are the winds that caused numerous power outages and damage across parts of the Coastal Bend.

Tomorrow night, there's something really cool happening in the sky - a total lunar eclipse! Lunar eclipses occur when the Earth is positioned between the Sun and Moon, so that the Moon is eclipsed by Earth's shadow. In the case of a total lunar eclipse, the Moon is completely within the darkest part of the Earth's shadow.

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — We'll see heightened fire danger again tomorrow. Another dryline will move through the Coastal Bend tomorrow morning and afternoon ahead of a cold front. This will significantly drop humidity levels across the area - specifically in those communities behind the dryline (to the west). In addition to the low humidity levels and drought conditions, inland winds will become breezy again at 10-20 mph with gusts to 30 mph.
