Today's Discussion:
Much above normal temperatures. After starting the day at a mild 71°F, afternoon
sunshine and southerly winds allowed for the high to top out at 91°F this
afternoon at Camp Mabry in Austin. Today’s recorded high was not all that far
away from today’s record high temperature of 95°F set just last year. Normal
for this time of year is closer to 82°F.
October Heat:
Summer-like conditions and temperatures
are forecast to persist through Wednesday of next week ahead of the arrival of
our next cold front set to move through the area on Thursday. Afternoon highs
in the upper 80s to lower 90s with overnight lows near 70°F. Late night/morning
clouds will give way to partly cloudy afternoons through the middle of next
week.
Rain Chances:
Slight rain chances enter the forecast as early as
Wednesday and persist through Thursday afternoon for the region as the cold
front approaches and moves through the area. Significant rainfall is not likely
with this next cold front.
Forecast Rainfall Accumulation: [over the next 7 days]
Beautiful Formula One Weekend:
Beautiful fall weather (significantly cooler &
drier air) will infiltrate the area behind Thursday’s cold frontal passage and
set us up for what looks to be an absolutely stellar Formula One Weekend with afternoon highs in
the 70s and overnight lows in the 40s & 50s…it is going to feel great!
Other than some passing high-level clouds from time to time, skies will be
mainly sunny/clear.
