Austin Wednesday Morning Weather Update: Rain Showers Replace the Clear Forecast, With Fog Thursday and a Stormy, 91-Degree Monday Ahead

The station's live feed now calls Wednesday a rain-shower day — 82 for a high after a 65-degree start — a shift from the clear skies in the early forecast. Fog follows Thursday, light rain Friday, a warm dry Sunday near 88, then thunderstorms and a high near 91 on Monday.

Austin Wednesday Morning Weather Update: Rain Showers Replace the Clear Forecast, With Fog Thursday and a Stormy, 91-Degree Monday Ahead (AUSTIN CAPITAL NEWS)

Austin's Wednesday forecast has changed since the early outlook. The station's live Open-Meteo feed read 65.4 degrees and partly cloudy early Wednesday, and it now puts rain showers over the city during the day with a high near 82 and a low near 65 — a wetter picture than the clear, mid-80s day the early forecast carried. The shower chance is modest, at 13 percent precipitation probability on the feed, but drivers and anyone with outdoor plans should treat Wednesday as a day that can turn wet without much warning.

The pattern behind the showers lingers without settling. Thursday brings fog on the feed, with a high near 79 and a low near 64 and a 21 percent precipitation chance; Friday turns to light rain, cooler at about 76 for a high and mild overnight near 70. Saturday stays in a drizzle pattern, back up near 82, before Sunday dries out and warms sharply — overcast skies but a high near 88 and a low near 70, the warmest night of the week on the current feed.

The week's headline sits at its end. Monday carries thunderstorms on the feed with a high near 91 — the hottest day of the seven — and a 24 percent precipitation chance, followed by a cooler, still unsettled Tuesday near 79 with the week's highest shower probability at 28 percent. In short: a damp Wednesday, a foggy Thursday, a warm dry Sunday to plan around, and a stormy start to next week that bears watching as the weekend approaches.
