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

(1) Clouds are present this morning but will break as we go into afternoon ahead of a reinforcing dry cold front that will move through the area later tonight. This front will act to simply reinforce the drier air mass in place with abundant sunshine expected tomorrow through Thursday.

(2) Another upper level low pressure disturbance will pass west-to-east to our north by late Friday into Saturday and allow a surface cold front to surge eastward through the area about daybreak on Saturday. Clouds will increase in advance of the system on Friday with a slim chance of rain late Friday night into Saturday morning with clouds clearing out west-to-east, in the wake of the front, for Saturday into Sunday and early next week.

NWS/Weather Prediction Center rainfall guidance, over the next seven days, is suggesting trace amounts or no rainfall for the IH35 corridor.

MY FORECAST CONFIDENCE OVER THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS…
High to Very High Confidence through Monday
