AUSTIN / UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS / IH35 CORRIDOR
SEVEN DAY WEATHER HEADLINES AND MY 7 DAY FORECAST CONFIDENCE …

(1) A stable weather pattern prevails. With the dry weather pattern persisting, drought conditions continue to worsen across our IH35 corridor and we will continue to see grassfire/wildfire danger through the area over the next seven days.

(2) Temperatures will continue to warm with temperatures warming to above seasonal averages.

(3) The upper level high building over the area through mid week and acting like a “lid” on the atmosphere looks like it will weaken a bit by the end of the week into next weekend with temperatures falling a few degrees.

Based on NWS/Weather Prediction Center guidance, no rainfall is forecast for our IH35 corridor counties over the next seven day period.

MY LOCAL FORECAST CONFIDENCE OVER THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS…
Very high confidence forecast.
