AUSTIN / IH35 CORRIDOR
MY SEVEN DAY WEATHER THOUGHTS
AND MY 7 DAY FORECAST CONFIDENCE …
A stable summer weather pattern continues today with upper level high
pressure in place just to the north of the area. This atmospheric “lid” will
limit upward motion and keep our weather dry even though a few showers
and storms could develop to our immediate south and east.
The upper level high will settle back northwestward over the Rockies as we
go into the weekend and this will allow a more moist and unstable air mass
to move northwestward into the area from the Gulf through the weekend
resulting in rain and storm chances returning to the forecast. In addition,
by the early into mid part of next week, this moist and unstable auiir mass
will combine with a weakening cold front, moving in from the north, to
further increase cloud cover as well as rain and thunderstorm chances
particularly Monday into Tuesday when some of the heavier rainfall totals
are likely to occur. Temperatures, in the more extensive cloud cover, will
fall a few degrees as well.
Rain chances will decrease a bit for Wednesday and Thursday as clouds
break and temperatures rebound a few degrees.
LOCAL FORECAST CONFIDENCE FOR THIS SEVEN DAY FORECAST PERIOD …
– A high to very high forecast confidence today through next Tuesday.
