AUSTIN, Texas — Today will be a generally nice one. Highs will get into the lower and mid-80s, with a risk for a few stronger thunderstorms in Hill County this afternoon. The overall risk is low.
Still light concentrations of smoke across central and south Texas, so that hazy look to the skyline may still be around today. And if you are sensitive to air quality issues, please limit your time outside.
Tracking heavier rains this weekend that could interrupt any outdoor Mother's Day plans. Monday also looks like a wet start to the week. Multiple rounds of rain will increase our flood risk as we head through the days 4-5 days here. Drier and warmer Tuesday, and then our moist pattern returns for the middle of next week with a 20-30% chance for showers and storms Wednesday and Thursday.
