AUSTIN / UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS WEATHER
SEVEN DAY WEATHER HEADLINES…

.. A Quiet and Stable Weather Pattern ..
.. Tropical Cyclone Threat for Louisiana Over the Weekend ..

(1) Upper level high pressure, acting like a “lid” of the atmosphere, will result in a drier and more stable late spring/early summer weather pattern through the balance of the week and into the weekend. Temperatures will be warming up with afternoon highs approaching 100 by late in the weekend and even warmer by early next week.

(2) I continue to monitor the latest NWS/National Hurricane Center guidance regarding the tropical cyclone, tropical depression Cristobal, over the Yucatan Peninsula. The latest guidance suggests the system will continue to move slowly through the Yucatan Peninsula before turning northward by tonight into tomorrow making its way into the central Gulf of Mexico by the weekend. It looks like the center of the tropical system will make landfall on the south central Louisiana coast in the predawn hours Monday as a tropical storm. With the system well to our east, we’ll remain on the dry side of the system with no effects expected. As usual, there’s still uncertainty with this system so stay up to date with the latest information and remember to disregard “click bait” social media entries of what one atmospheric computer model / model guidance spaghetti plot says. You should really only trust information from the NWS/National Hurricane Center and local NWS offices.
