Austin, TX – Residents across Central Texas should prepare for another chilly night tonight, with light freeze conditions expected in several areas under clear skies and calm winds, according to the National Weather Service Austin–San Antonio.
According to the National Weather Service, overnight low temperatures will dip into the upper 20s and low 30s across much of South-Central Texas due to radiational cooling enhanced by a new moon and clear conditions. The coldest readings are expected in the Hill Country and along parts of the I-35 corridor.
Forecast low temperatures include:
- Hill Country: 25–30 degrees
- I-35 Corridor (Austin, San Antonio): 28–33 degrees
- Coastal Plains: 29–34 degrees
- Rio Grande Plains: Around 29–34 degrees
- Southern Edwards Plateau: 30–35 degrees
Drivers heading out early Monday should be alert for patchy frost on windshields, particularly in rural and elevated areas. While widespread hard freezes are not anticipated, sensitive plants, pets, and exposed pipes could be impacted in colder locations.
Looking ahead, afternoon temperatures will rebound into the mid-50s to near 70 degrees this week, with milder overnight lows expected by midweek. Rain chances increase Wednesday, with the highest probabilities—40% to 65%—focused east of I-35. Forecast confidence decreases heading into next weekend as weather models show increasing variability.
The National Weather Service advises residents to stay updated on overnight temperature trends and midweek rain timing, especially those commuting early or managing outdoor activities.
