Clouds have been steadily building through the overnight hours, giving us a softer, gray start to the morning. Temperatures are comfortable, holding in the 60s and 70s as we wake up. Through the day, those clouds will thin out, leaving us with a mix of sun and clouds, overall a partly cloudy sky. Afternoon highs will climb into the mid-80s, and the south wind, starting light at 5 to 10 mph, will pick up to a breezier 10 to 15 mph, adding a touch of warmth and movement to the day.

🌙 Tonight

Clouds will make a comeback after sunset, gradually thickening overnight. Temperatures will settle near 65 degrees, with a gentle south wind around 5 mph keeping conditions mild.

🌧️ Looking Ahead

Tomorrow brings a slight uptick in shower chances, though rain remains limited and scattered. The real focus is Thursday: an approaching system will bring a stronger chance of precipitation, especially Thursday afternoon into Thursday night. This system could deliver more widespread showers and possibly a few heavier downpours, marking the week’s most notable weather change.

📍 Regional Outlook

NWS Fort Worth/Dallas reports isolated to scattered showers today, mainly west of I-35. Most areas will see little rainfall during the day, but more widespread showers and storms are expected this evening, especially out west. A few storms could become strong to severe, with locally heavy rainfall. Rainfall totals through Friday are projected in the 1–2 inch range. Unseasonably warm conditions continue, with highs in the 80s and a chance of record highs at Waco and DFW.

NWS Austin/San Antonio notes cloudy skies with patchy fog and drizzle this morning, giving way to partly cloudy skies this afternoon. Highs will reach the upper 70s and 80s. Heavy rain potential increases Wednesday night through Thursday night, with pockets of 1–3 inches possible. Strong to severe storms may accompany this system, especially Wednesday night through Friday morning. Another storm system could bring rain late Sunday into early Tuesday.
