Austin is starting Friday with clear skies and temperatures near 60 degrees, but the fall reset is still refusing to show up. Sunshine will drive the city to about 87 degrees this afternoon, with no rain expected and only light south winds.
Sunny Friday Gives Way To A Breezier Saturday
Friday night stays mostly clear with a low near 61, while Saturday will be mostly sunny and slightly cooler than Friday, topping out around 85 degrees. Southeast winds could gust near 20 mph Saturday, according to the National Weather Service, so patio plans look good but lightweight napkins may need a game plan.
Small Rain Chances Return Next Week
Sunday remains partly sunny with a high near 82, followed by a partly sunny Monday near 82 degrees. Rain chances rise to about 20% Tuesday and 40% Wednesday, then reach 30% Thursday as scattered showers become more possible.
The updated forecast keeps Austin warm and mostly dry through the weekend, while forecasters watch for a wetter pattern developing ahead of Halloween weekend. That is a modest shift from the earlier outlook covered by Hoodline, which focused on the continued October heat.
No Watches Or Warnings For Austin
There are no watches, warnings or advisories in effect for the Austin area. For Friday, the forecast is straightforward: sunglasses early, water for the afternoon and perhaps a light layer only for aggressively air-conditioned buildings.
