AUSTIN / UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS WEATHER
SEVEN DAY WEATHER HEADLINES…

(1) After low clouds and fog this morning, clouds will decrease a bit with well above average temperatures into tomorrow.

(2) Another series of upper level low pressure disturbances will move across the area beginning late Thursday into Friday through the weekend as a surface cold front approaches the area from the north late Thursday into Friday and then another cold front approaches Saturday. Guidance now suggests that these fronts will not move through the area but instead leave us in a rather  moist unsettled weather pattern with on again/off again rain chances through the weekend and into next week. NWS/Weather Prediction Center rainfall forecast guidance has reduced the overall rainfall amounts expected locally over the next seven days to generally between .25″ to .50″.
