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

(1) I expect sunshine in general over the two days with near average temperatures for today with a more substantial warmup tomorrow with temperatures back above seasonal averages.

(2) A dry, but stronger, cold front will move southward through the area by tomorrow evening with temperatures falling back to seasonal averages late week into the weekend.

(3) Another upper level low pressure disturbance and associated surface cold front will move southeastward across the area Sunday and Sunday night.

(4) An approaching upper air low pressure disturbance will trigger the development of a slow moving surface low along the Texas coast Monday into Tuesday with clouds and rain chances returning to our area.

NWS/Weather Prediction Center rainfall guidance, over the next seven days, is forecasting around .50″ for the IH35 corridor.

MY FORECAST CONFIDENCE OVER THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS…
High to Very High Confidence through Sunday Night..
Low to Medium Confidence Monday into Tuesday..
