AUSTIN / UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS WEATHER
SEVEN DAY WEATHER HEADLINES…
(1) A dry and stable weather pattern continues through the new week and into our coming weekend as upper level high pressure maintains a “lid” on the atmosphere. I do not see any precipitation locally through the weekend as afternoon high temperatures continue well above seasonal averages.
(2) The upper level high will shift a little further northward by early next week with a cold front moving into Texas with a better chance of a few rain showers and thunderstorms making their way northwestward from the Texas coastal plains into the IH35 corridor.
