AUSTIN — Wednesday is closing clear and cooling. The station's live weather feed read 64.8 degrees under a clear sky late Wednesday evening, feeling like 66.0, after a Veterans Day that topped out at 77.2 with a low of 60.8 and only a 3 percent precipitation chance.
Thursday is now the week's clear peak, revised up: sunny and 79.9 degrees with a low of 56.2 and no rain in the outlook. Friday then cools more than the day's earlier files had it — overcast, 76.1 degrees, and a chilly morning low of 53.1, still dry.
The weekend turn is firming up. Saturday brings showers (code 80) at 71.3 degrees with the precipitation chance up to 33 percent, and Sunday stays drizzly at a high of just 60.5 with the chance at 59 percent and a low of 58.0. It is the same weekend rain the LCRA pointed to Wednesday night as it warned floodgates on the Highland Lakes could be needed again, with Lake Travis already above full pool.
Monday recovers only to 66.3 and Tuesday to 67.0, both overcast and essentially dry. For the rest of Wednesday night: clear skies, a steady fall through the 60s, and the last mild night before Friday's cooler morning arrives.
