Austin Sunday Night Weather: the Clouds Are Back at 70.7 Degrees, Monday Runs 82.9 and Overcast, and Election Day's Rain Holds at 71 Percent
The clear sky at 9 p.m. did not last the night. By 11, Austin was back under a grey ceiling and cooling - with an overcast, dry Monday in front of a rainy Election Day that has not moved in three straight updates.
Austin's Sunday closed the way most of it was spent: under cloud. The station's live weather feed, read late Sunday night, November 1, showed 70.7 degrees and overcast skies (code 3), feeling like 75.7 - the brief clearing to a starry sky at the 21:04 update gave way again to cloud, and the temperature fell from 74. Sunday's confirmed range was a high of 85 and a low of 61.8, with a 1 percent precipitation chance.
Monday is a settled, dry day in the feed: overcast (code 3) with a high of 82.9 and a low of 65.8, and the rain chance down to 2 percent from 3 percent in the last update. It is the calm day of the week - and, for Travis County, the last full day before Election Day.
Tuesday's forecast did not move, and its steadiness is now the story. Election Day remains coded as rain (code 65) with a high of 74.6, a low of 66 and a 71 percent precipitation probability - the same numbers as the 21:04 update. Wednesday follows overcast and dry at 78.3, Thursday turns mainly clear (code 1) at 82.4, Friday is overcast at 81, and Saturday keeps its thunderstorm code (96) at 82.4 degrees with a 14 percent chance - the back-of-week storm signal the desk has tracked all weekend.
