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

(1) The axis of the chilly surface high pressure, in the wake of the weekend cold front, has now moved east of the area. A south southeasterly surface wind will allow for temperatures to rise back closer and even above seasonal averages through today.

(2) Another series of dry cold fronts will move through the area tonight into early tomorrow which will drop temperatures back below seasonal averages as we wrap up the week. Limited low level moisture return and limited atmospheric instability means little cloudiness and no precipitation as the front passes. By the weekend, as the high pressure behind the front moves east, southerly surface winds return and we’ll see a warming trend.

(3) Yet another surface cold front (yes, you guessed it, dry) will pass through the area by Sunday with temperatures cooling again Sunday night into the first part of next week.

NWS/Weather Prediction Center rainfall guidance is predicting no rainfall for our IH35 corridor over the next seven days.

MY FORECAST CONFIDENCE OVER THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS…
Very High Confidence
