Austin Monday Weather: Fog Opens the Day at a High of 82.6, and Election Day's Rain Still Stands at 71 Percent
The overnight sky cleared and the temperature fell to 67.6. What replaced the clouds in the feed is a fog code for Monday morning - and, behind a warm and dry Monday, the same rainy Election Day the desk has tracked all weekend.
Austin's week opened clear and cooler overnight. The station's live weather feed, read in the early hours of Monday, November 2, showed 67.6 degrees under a mainly clear sky (code 1), feeling like 71.4 - a change from Sunday night's overcast reading, with the temperature down from 70.7 as the cloud cover thinned out.
Monday itself carries the week's first driving note: the day is coded for fog (code 45), with a high of 82.6, a low of 65.8 and a precipitation chance of just 2 percent. It is a warm, dry day once any morning fog lifts - and for Travis County it is the final full day before voters head to the polls.
Tuesday's forecast, once again, did not move. Election Day remains coded as rain (code 65), with a high of 74.5, a low of 66 and a 71 percent precipitation probability - the fourth straight station update with the rain chance at 71 percent. Behind it, the week settles: Wednesday turns mainly clear (code 1) and dry at 78.4, Thursday carries a light drizzle code (51) at 82.6 with a 3 percent chance, Friday is overcast at 79.9, and the weekend reads overcast Saturday at 80.4 and clear Sunday at 78.7 - Saturday's thunderstorm code from Sunday night's file has dropped out of the feed.
