Austin, Texas – Morning fog and clouds gave way to sunshine Sunday as a weak cold front moved through Central and South Texas.
According to the National Weather Service office in Austin–San Antonio, areas of morning fog developed early Sunday before gradually clearing by late morning. As the cold front progressed through the region, slightly cooler temperatures were expected mainly across northern counties, while most locations remained in the 70s.
Forecasters indicated that abundant sunshine would develop during the afternoon hours, especially south of the front. Breezy northerly winds were expected behind the boundary, contributing to more comfortable conditions compared to recent days.
High temperatures were forecast to range from the mid-60s north of Austin to the lower and mid-70s farther south toward San Antonio and the Coastal Plains. Despite the frontal passage, no precipitation was reported with the system.
The National Weather Service emphasized that the front was primarily a wind and temperature shift, not a storm-producing system. Visibility issues from fog were expected to improve steadily through the morning commute.
For drivers, especially those traveling early Sunday, patchy fog may have briefly reduced visibility before conditions improved. By afternoon, clear skies and sunshine were expected to dominate much of the region.
The weather pattern reflects a typical December transition in Central Texas, with mild afternoons continuing even as periodic fronts move through the area.
