Austin Weather Thursday Afternoon: 77.3 Degrees and Clear, Saturday's High Revised Down to 64.2 and Tuesday's to 60.8
Thursday afternoon is warm and clear at 77.3, two-tenths short of the day's 79.4 high. The weekend turn is firmer in the live feed: Saturday drizzle at 64.2, Sunday rain showers, a 60.7 Monday — and Tuesday's high has been cut nearly ten degrees since the midday file.
AUSTIN — Thursday afternoon has delivered the warm day the morning files promised. The station's live feed put Austin at 77.3 degrees and clear in the early afternoon, feeling like 76.4, up from 72.2 at midday and within reach of today's high of 79.4, with a low of 55.3 and no rain chance at all.
Friday is the last day of the warm pattern: overcast at times, a high of 78.9 and a low of 52.1, with the precipitation chance still at zero. Saturday then turns: the feed shows drizzle, a rain chance of 41 percent and a high of only 64.2 — revised down from the 66.6 in the midday file.
Sunday is now the weekend's wettest day in the feed, coded as rain showers with a high of 66.0, a low of 58.2 and a 59 percent rain chance, and Monday stays cool and showery at 60.7 with a 32 percent chance. The sharpest revision in the afternoon feed is Tuesday: its high has been cut from 70.5 in the midday file to 60.8, with a low of 55.4 and the rain chance down to 3 percent, before Wednesday recovers to 74.0 at a 10 percent chance.
The practical read for Austin is unchanged in shape and firmer in detail: enjoy a warm, dry Thursday and Friday, plan on a wet and much cooler weekend, and do not put the jackets away after it — the start of next week now runs colder than it looked at midday. The Weather Desk updates this file whenever the live feed moves materially from the figures above.
