AUSTIN / IH35 CORRIDOR
SEVEN DAY WEATHER HEADLINES
AND MY 7 DAY FORECAST CONFIDENCE …
(1) Other than some morning low clouds, a mostly clear to partly cloudy sky is expected into Sunday with afternoon highs continuing to be well above seasonal averages.
(2) A more unstable, and potentially wet, weather pattern develops by late Sunday with better rain and storm chances which looks to continue into Monday /Memorial Day/ as an upper level low pressure disturbance passes overhead and a cold front passes by Monday afternoon. A little cooler air will move into the area with more upper level disturbances slated to move west to east overhead resulting in continued rain and storm chances Monday night through much of the new week ahead.
Based on NWS/Weather Prediction Center data and guidance, my forecast is for 1.75 to 2.25 inches of rainfall for our IH35 corridor counties through the 7 day forecast period which ends in the early morning hours next Saturday.
MY LOCAL FORECAST CONFIDENCE OVER THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS…
A high to very high confidence forecast through Sunday then a medium to high confidence forecast Sunday night through much of the new week ahead.
