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

(1) In the wake of the upper level low pressure disturbance, clouds have cleared eastward early this morning with a mostly clear to partly cloudy sky expected today through the much of the upcoming weekend. Temperatures will continue to be well below seasonal averages into the weekend with another freeze tomorrow morning.

(2) Temperatures will warm a bit late in the weekend into early next week as yet another upper level low pressure moves across the area with increased clouds and much better rain chances again late Sunday into Monday.

(3) Another cold front moves through the area on Tuesday afternoon and will result in another cool down with abundant sunshine for the middle into later part of next week.

NWS/Weather Prediction Center rainfall guidance is predicting average rainfall of 0.50 inch for our area over the next seven days.

MY FORECAST CONFIDENCE OVER THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS…
A high to very high confidence forecast today through the weekend and into next week.
