Austinites woke up to overcast skies this Easter Sunday, with patchy drizzle and fog adding a touch of gray to the holiday. Temperatures are promised a climb, with most areas expecting the mercury to sit comfortably in the low to mid-80s. The Hill Country, however, may see thermometers stretching into the low 90s as the overcast conditions give way to clearer skies in the afternoon, according to KXAN.

Today's conditions in Austin will persist with partly sunny skies and a high near 82 degrees. The south wind will blow at about 5 to 15 mph, with gusts possibly hitting the 20 mph mark. Tonight, visibility could drop once again with patchy drizzle and fog expected after 4 a.m., and a low hovering around 68 degrees, as per the National Weather Service.

Looking into the week, a Pacific cold front paired with an upper-level trough of low pressure sets the stage for a wet Monday evening. Showers may start to sprinkle the region around 5 to 6 p.m., intensifying as they trek eastward and hit I-35 between 9 p.m. and midnight. Expect modest rain totals averaging .01" to .10", though some localities might see amounts up to .25" to .33", as reported by KXAN.

A "Marginal Risk" for severe storms exercises vigilance over territories stretching from Lampasas to Blanco Counties eastward, signaling a cautious eye for hail 1" in diameter and wind gusts tipping between 55 and 60 mph. "Lightning will also be a threat," as detailed by KXAN's forecast. The post-frontal Tuesday ushers in a refreshing north wind, dialing daytime highs back to the low to mid-70s.

The remainder of the week bodes well for sun-seekers, with predominantly sunny conditions ruling the skies until clouds flirt with the horizon come Saturday. Daytime highs will primarily lounge in the comfortable bracket of the 70s, potentially prizing those with outdoor plans with an ensemble of pleasant weather.
