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

(1) After some morning low clouds this morning, a stronger, but dry, cold front will pass today with much cooler temperatures expected for the end of the week into the weekend with plenty of sunshine expected.

(2) We’ll see temperatures warm again by Sunday into early/mid next week as a south southeasterly surface wind flow becomes better established and we start to see a better return of low level moisture than we’ve seen lately.

NWS/Weather Prediction Center rainfall guidance, for the IH35 corridor over the next seven days, forecasts little or no precipitation through Wednesday.

MY FORECAST CONFIDENCE OVER THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS…
Today through Wednesday..
Very High confidence
