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

As the system gets closer, we’ll see a few sprinkles and rain showers late tonight and then rain and thunderstorms beginning by afternoon tomorrow and tomorrow night into Wednesday morning before the a cold front passes east-to-east through the area by Wednesday.
