AUSTIN / IH35 CORRIDOR
MY SEVEN DAY WEATHER THOUGHTS
AND MY 7 DAY FORECAST CONFIDENCE …

Mostly clear skies continue through today and into the early part of the day on
Saturday.

An approaching Pacific upper air low pressure disturbance will result in increased
clouds and rain chances by Saturday afternoon through Sunday. A cold front will
filter south southwestward over the area late Sunday and early Monday in the wake
of the disturbance.

Once the cold front passes southwest of the area and weakens, clouds will linger
on Monday with much cooler temperatures prevailing. Clouds will partially break
Tuesday into Wednesday before clouds and some rain chances return to our
forecast by Wednesday night and Thursday as yet another Pacific upper level low
pressure disturbance approaches from the west.

MY LOCAL FORECAST CONFIDENCE FOR THIS SEVEN DAY FORECAST PERIOD …
– A very high forecast confidence now through Sunday night.
– A high forecast confidence for Monday through Thursday.
