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 above seasonal averages.

(2) The upper level high will shift a little further northward by early next week with a better chance of a few rain showers and thunderstorms making their way northwestward from the Texas coastal plains into the IH35 corridor.

MY FORECAST CONFIDENCE OVER THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS…
Through Sunday.. High to very high forecast confidence through Sunday
Monday and Tuesday.. Low confidence, reference any rain chances, otherwise high confidence
