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

(1) With the passage to the east of the upper level low, clouds, as predicted, broke this morning as surface low pressure develops over west Texas with a corresponding return south southeasterly surface wind by tonight into tomorrow. Temperatures will be warming to above seasonal averages.

(2) Another cold front will move quickly through the area late Friday night with increased clouds but, at this point, I am not confident enough in the guidance to include any rain in my forecast.

(3) Skies will partially clear with temperatures falling back to below seasonal averages for our weekend into next week. Another weaker cold front is expected to pass by early Monday; basically, it will reinforce the cooler air mass. Temperatures will warm a few degrees by mid week before yet another cold front passes through the area.

NWS/Weather Prediction Center rainfall guidance is predicting little if any rainfall for our area over the next seven days.

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