Another frontal boundary late last night delivered another round of dry air leading to a very comfortable afternoon. High pressure aloft is delivering a dry NW flow for a sunny sky. Wind speeds will gradually lower during the afternoon. The normal high is 73 ... most highs this afternoon will be close if not right at 73. Expect a chilly start to Wednesday. This dry air will cool quickly once the sun goes down (think desert air) for lows in the morning that will fall to the 40s.
Surface high pressure will move from north of Houston tomorrow morning into the Gulf during the day delivering a southeast to south wind helping highs reach the middle to upper 70s tomorrow afternoon.
The dry forecast continues Thursday. Low rain chances are in the weekend forecast. Another front heads to the area Sunday, passes Monday night to Tuesday morning. Rain chances are a little higher for Monday and Tuesday.
Highs in the 80s this weekend will dip back to the 70s early next week.
This day's pollen counts are not good. Oak is dominant in both the Austin count and the Williamson County count. The Austin count shows 15 tree pollens in the air today. Oak will stay dominant for awhile while the others remain in low to moderate numbers. Yes, cedar is still in the air thanks in no small measure to the strong northwest wind Monday.
