Prepare for a chilly and windy Friday in Central Texas, with temperatures dipping into the low 40s tonight before rebounding to mild highs in the 60s. Whether you’re hitting the Black Friday sales along the I-35 corridor or traveling to the Hill Country, north winds up to 20 mph will make for brisk conditions through Friday morning.
Expect mostly sunny skies on Friday, perfect for outdoor shopping or holiday activities, but keep a jacket handy as temperatures hover around 62°F in Austin. Heading into the weekend, Saturday will offer calm and partly sunny weather, with highs reaching 66°F, but colder mornings in the mid-40s could delay early outdoor plans.
Sunday marks a shift as clouds gather, and the chance of rain climbs to 30% by late evening. Areas like Fredericksburg and Kerrville might see freezing conditions during early hours, so drivers should exercise caution, especially on rural roads.
