AUSTIN / UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS WEATHER
SEVEN DAY WEATHER HEADLINES
AND MY 7 DAY FORECAST CONFIDENCE …
(1) A fairly tranquil weather pattern is expected to continue into late week with increased low level moisture in place with a layer of early morning low clouds and even a few sprinkles from the morning low clouds.
(2) A stronger cold front is slated to move across our area by late Friday afternoon into evening hours. Given a more stable atmosphere in advance of the front, I do not expect any precipitation as the front moves through the area. Cooler and drier air will move into the area for Friday night into Saturday.
(3) After a brief return to a southerly surface wind Sunday, another cold front is due to move across the area by Sunday night into Monday. A more unsettled weather pattern will result in better rain chances, it appears, as the front passes and the cooler temperatures settles in for the first part of next week.
NWS/Weather Prediction Center rainfall guidance, for the IH35 corridor over the next seven days, suggests 0.25″ or less for our area.
