Austin, Texas – Humid nights and warm temperatures continue across Central Texas, but the calm may give way to thunderstorms early next week.
According to the National Weather Service in Austin/San Antonio, overnight lows will stay in the low to mid-70s through Sunday, with light winds under 10 mph offering little relief. Scattered thunderstorms are expected to develop Monday and could linger into Wednesday, bringing lightning, brief downpours, and minor flooding in low-lying areas.
Residents from San Antonio to Austin and surrounding areas like New Braunfels, Kerrville, and Gonzales should prepare for potential travel delays and localized power interruptions, especially during the Monday evening and Tuesday afternoon hours when storms are most likely. Major roadways including I-35 and US-281 could see brief slowdowns during storm bursts.
While the weekend will bring only minimal impacts, early preparedness is advised. Keep mobile devices charged, avoid parking in flood-prone areas, and monitor local alerts starting late Sunday.
Rain chances increase significantly by Monday, and unsettled weather may persist into midweek. Further advisories could be issued as storm patterns develop.
