AUSTIN / UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS WEATHER
SEVEN DAY WEATHER HEADLINES…

(1) A stable weather pattern continues pretty much through the weekend with a big warmup expected. A passing upper air low pressure disturbance and an associated weak reinforcing cold front will move southeastward through the area by late morning into midday Saturday but limited moisture availability will mean that the only sensible weather with the system will be a wind shift.

(2) Another low pressure storm system with associated several cold fronts.. one Monday and another late Wednesday into Thursday.. will approach the area for the early part of next week with clouds thickening and the return of rain chances with even a few stronger thunderstorms. Rainfall amounts expected, in general, during this period, have increased and based on NWS/Weather Prediction Center guidance, will be in the 1 to 3″ range.
