AUSTIN / IH35 CORRIDOR
MY SEVEN DAY WEATHER THOUGHTS
AND MY 7 DAY FORECAST CONFIDENCE …
The dry and stable summer weather pattern continues to be in place
across our area as high pressure in the upper atmosphere persists
which creates a “lid” which limits upward motion in our atmosphere.
This means no precipitation through at least Saturday.
This “lid,” as well, traps surface heat and, as a result, slightly higher afternoon
temperatures combined with low level moisture will continue to result in
slightly elevated heat stress and web bulb globe temperature values over the next
four or five days before the heat stress levels increase a bit by Friday into the
holiday weekend. As usual this time of year, please remain hydrated and don’t
“over do it” in regards to midday, afternoon and early evening outdoor activities.
Initial indications are, in a admittedly lower confidence forecast, that the upper
level high pressure will weaken a bit with a little more unstable gulf moisture
moving onshore of the Texas coast by next Sunday. This could result in some
rain and storm chances by next Sunday but I will keep rain chances minimal at
this point until I can resolve the situation better.
LOCAL FORECAST CONFIDENCE FOR THIS SEVEN DAY FORECAST PERIOD …
– A very high forecast confidence today through Saturday..
– A medium to high forecast confidence for Sunday..
