Changes started to roll into Central Texas on Friday thanks to a cold front… And there are signs that we’ll be moving into an unusual stretch of rainy and cooler weather through the middle of the next week as Hurricane Beryl is forecast to move right up along I-35 through the Lone Star State. Now, in the short-term forecast - Friday’s front managed to spark up a few showers and thunderstorms across the area during the afternoon and evening hours. While most of the activity will wind down by sunset, additional showers and a few thunderstorms could redevelop and bring some rain into Central Texas late tonight and throughout the day on Saturday. We will still have the chance for a few scattered showers and non-severe storms as the front remains stalled out near the area on Sunday. With scattered rain and clouds in the forecast for the weekend, we’re going to see a slight drop in our temperatures. While it’s not going to feel colder outside, you’ll be able to feel the difference in temperatures. Morning lows for the weekend will be down into the mid-70s with highs in the low-90s Saturday afternoon and into the mid-90s on Sunday - Which is better than the upper 90s and low 100s we’ve been dealing with now for over the past week, but we’ll still be fairly humid outside of where it’s not raining, so it may feel even hotter. As far as rain chances go this weekend, not everyone will see rain, but those that do could see a heavy downpour, lightning, and some gusty winds. The best chance for rain will likely take place during the afternoon and evening hours. Make sure to pay attention to the skies this weekend and remember, when thunder roars, head indoors!
