AUSTIN / UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS WEATHER
SEVEN DAY WEATHER HEADLINES
AND MY 7 DAY FORECAST CONFIDENCE …
(1) An active subtropical jet stream, coming off the tropical Pacific Ocean northeastward across Mexico and into the southern Plains and eastward through the southeastern USA, will continue introduce mid and upper level moisture as another upper level disturbance moves eastward from the western USA. A developing surface low over Texas by late tonight into Thursday will result in the return to rain chances Wednesday night peaking on Thursday with a surface cold front following the upper level system and moving across the IH35 corridor in the predawn hours Friday.
(2) After dropping from the forecast late Thursday through Thursday night and Friday, with the subtropical jet stream remaining active, we’ll see clouds thicken once again with relatively slim rain chances continuing on and off Friday night through the weekend.
Based on NWS/Weather Prediction Center guidance, rainfall for our IH35 corridor will average 0.25 to 0.50 inch over the next seven day period.
MY FORECAST CONFIDENCE OVER THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS…
A high forecast confidence for over the next seven days.
