WEATHER HAZARDS THROUGH 12 MIDNIGHT TONIGHT…

.. No Hazards Expected Today Through Tonight ..

AUSTIN / UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS WEATHER
SEVEN DAY WEATHER HEADLINES…

(1) In the wake of our mid week low pressure storm system, a drier and more stable weather pattern with abundant sunshine is expected today and continuing through the end of the week and through most of the weekend with temperatures rising back to above seasonal averages.

(2) Clouds will increase a bit by late Saturday into Sunday with a passing upper air low pressure disturbance and weak cold front but I really think most precipitation should remain along the coast and Texas coastal plains to our south and southeast.

(3) We’ll see another brief break in the clouds with sunshine expected into early next week before another upper level low pressure disturbance and associated cold front moves through the area by Tuesday and Tuesday night with clouds and rain chances again. Once the front passes in the overnight hours Tuesday night, we’ll see the return to a drier and more stable pattern with the return to sunshine on Wednesday.

AUSTIN / UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS WEATHER
SEVEN DAY WEATHER HEADLINES…

(1) A broad upper level low pressure system and associated surface cold front is moving through Texas. With daytime high temperatures well below average, another .25″ of rain is possible through today.

(2) In the wake of the mid week system, a drier and more stable weather pattern with abundant sunshine is expected by tomorrow afternoon and continuing through most of the weekend with temperatures rising back to above seasonal averages.

(3) Clouds will increase a bit by late Sunday into early Monday with a passing upper air low pressure disturbance but I think any precipitation should remain along the coast and Texas coastal plains to our south and southeast.
