AUSTIN, Texas – Warm, dry afternoons will continue across Central and South Texas through mid-October, with highs climbing into the lower to mid-90s each day and nights trending cooler under mostly clear skies. The National Weather Service in Austin/San Antonio said the region remains locked in a stable fall pattern, with minimal rain chances and a break from recent humidity.
According to the Weather Service, afternoon highs will range from the upper 80s in the Hill Country to near 95°F along the I-35 corridor and Rio Grande Plains. Cuero, Del Rio, and San Antonio could flirt with mid-90s readings early next week, while Fredericksburg and Kerrville stay closer to 88–90°F.
Overnight lows will dip into the low to mid-60s across much of the region, with Hill Country valleys cooling into the upper 50s at times. Drier air will make evenings feel more comfortable, and morning commutes may bring a touch of crispness for the first time this fall.
