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

(1) A south southeastward moving cold front will advance through the area this afternoon and then move to off  the Texas coast and south Texas by later tonight. Rain chances will increase a bit as the front approaches later this afternoon and passes to our southeast; cooler temperatures will prevail for the middle part of week as skies clear tonight into tomorrow.

(2) As surface high pressure moves east of the area, southerly surface winds return, temperatures will warm once again to near to even slightly above seasonal averages by the weekend with abundant sunshine.

NWS/Weather Prediction Center rainfall guidance, over the next seven days, is predicting rainfall amounts of less than 0.25″ inch.

MY FORECAST CONFIDENCE OVER THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS…
Very high confidence through Monday.
