AUSTIN / IH35 CORRIDOR
SEVEN DAY WEATHER HEADLINES
AND MY 7 DAY FORECAST CONFIDENCE …
(1) A warm front has returned northward with low level gulf moisture having quickly increased with a significant upper level low pressure storm system approaches Texas from the west (associated with dynamic atmospheric lift) with rain and stormy weather in the offing. Heavier rain with some localized flooding issues and some severe thunderstorms with as associated large hail and tornado threat, primarily east of the IH35 corridor, may occur today.
(2) Partial clearing will occur tomorrow with some lingering
rain showers before we see a drier and more stable weather pattern, with abundant
sunshine, Friday through the weekend and into early next week.
Based on NWS/Weather Prediction Center data and guidance, my forecast is for 0.75 to 1.25 inches of rainfall, on average, for our IH35 corridor counties through the 7 day forecast period which ends in the early morning hours next Tuesday.
MY LOCAL FORECAST CONFIDENCE OVER THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS…
A high to very high confidence forecast through the next seven days.
