Central Texas’ next cold front is thankfully just a day away! Even though yesterday’s weather was absolutely spectacular, today’s weather will change in a big way ahead of another big change tomorrow! It’s solidly cold front season, y’all! Not only will there be a cold front pushing through early Tuesday, two more fronts may be on the way over the course of the next week.

This morning is a weird one temperature wise across Central Texas. Morning temperatures will largely be starting out in the 50s, but southerly winds have started to blow overnight and have helped to bring in some pockets of warmer temperatures. If you’re not in the 50s this morning, expect morning temperatures in the lower 60s out the door. The air is dry and sunshine is in full supply today, just like it was yesterday, but south winds are going to be hefty today. Today’s southerly winds gusting to near 30 MPH will help to bring us a day with high temperatures in the upper 80s for some and lower 90s for most! We’re expecting a 40° temperature swing from the overnight lows to the afternoon highs!

Thankfully today’s hot and breezy weather won’t last for long since another cold front is set to barrel through overnight tonight into tomorrow morning. With tomorrow’s front not really pushing in until closer to sunrise, we’ll keep warmer air in place through the night with temperatures only slowly falling through the 70s by around 3 AM before we tumble in the low-to-mid 60s around daybreak when the winds shift. The breezy southerly winds will turn northerly Tuesday and we’re falling right back into the upper 70s and lower 80s for high temperatures. Our coolest morning from Tuesday’s front will be Wednesday as we’re out the door in the upper 40s and lower 50s.

Just like with this past weekend’s cold front, Tuesday’s cold front won’t bring us a long lasting shot of cooler air. Temperatures will rebound gradually next week ahead of another cold front and storm system arrives Friday into Saturday. We’re right back into the low-to-mid 80s Wednesday before temperatures surge back into the mid-to-upper 80s Thursday. The cold front pushing into Central Texas Friday into Saturday is stemming from an upper-level low that’ll push across the Southern Plains. With the area of low pressure pushing directly through the area, we’re expecting a few scattered showers and non-severe thunderstorms. We’re expecting the scattered shower and storm chances to be highest Friday afternoon into Saturday morning, but the rain coverage will likely be lopsided. Everyone will have a chance, but the highest rainfall totals will be near and east of I-35 and could approach an inch in some locations.

The early weekend rain chances fall out of the forecast pretty quickly Saturday as another cold front swings through. The north winds will help to drop temperatures yet again, but it’ll be another short-lived drop in temperatures. Saturday’s mid-to-upper 70s for high temperatures will turn back to mid-80s Sunday and Monday. Another cold front, the third one over the course of the next eight days, is set to move in next Tuesday. The front arriving next Tuesday may FINALLY usher in a bit of a longer stretch of seasonable weather with highs dipping into the mid-70s mid-to-late week next week.
