AUSTIN / IH35 CORRIDOR
SEVEN DAY WEATHER HEADLINES
AND MY 7 DAY FORECAST CONFIDENCE …
(1) As a series of upper air systems moves slowly west-to-east across Texas by tonight into tomorrow and tomorrow night, we’ll see another good chance of precipitation with some stronger thunderstorms possible. Our next more substantial cold front will move across our IH35 corridor on Saturday morning with the best rain chances occurring before the frontal passage.
(2) As the front moves through the area early Saturday and then off the Texas coast, some light rain may persist through midday Saturday. Unseasonably cool temperatures will build into the area as a strong area of continental polar air and surface high pressure builds in from the Rockies and plains states. This cooler than average temperatures will prevail into the early into mid parts of next week.
Based on NWS/Weather Prediction Center guidance, my forecast is down a bit since yesterday; 0.75 to 1.00 inch of rainfall is expected, on average, for our IH35 corridor counties over the next seven day forecast period. Most of this precipitation will mostly likely occur specifically in the Thursday night into the Saturday midday time period.
MY LOCAL FORECAST CONFIDENCE OVER THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS…
A high to very high confidence forecast for over the next seven day period.
