The best time to prepare for hurricanes is BEFORE hurricane season begins. Avoid having to rush through potentially life-saving preparations by waiting until it’s too late. #HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong

With forecast tide levels expected to be around 2 ft above MSL with the next high tide cycle on Mon AM, minor coastal flooding will be a concern. Combined with a strong, persistent easterly wind, water levels could exceed 2 ft, increasing the likelihood of minor coastal flooding.

[NWS Corpus Christi @NWSCorpus]

During a flood, water levels and the rate at which the water is flowing can quickly change. Get to higher ground. Do not drive or walk into water. It only takes 6 inches of water to knock you off your feet. https://t.co/ZaQw1JDCb4 #WeatherReady

NOTICE: The City of Corpus Christi will participate in a statewide drill of public warning systems on Thursday, April 2, 2026, in coordination with the Texas Division of Emergency Management.

The drill will take place between 10:00 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. and test the performance and reliability of alert and warning systems used during emergencies. Test messages may be delivered through mobile devices and other platforms, including emergency notification systems and additional communication tools.

Residents may receive multiple test alerts during this time. A primary alert will be issued through IPAWS, and those enrolled in the Regional Reverse Alert system will also receive a notification. All messages are part of the exercise, and no action is required.

This coordinated effort supports ongoing statewide preparedness. A designated testing window allows agencies to activate primary, alternate, and backup systems. After the drill, participating agencies will submit feedback, including observations and recommendations, to improve future operations.

Any alerts received during this time frame are part of the planned drill. This is only a test. Residents are encouraged to confirm that emergency alerts are enabled on their mobile devices.
