Austin weather warms up ahead of a midweek cold front. After nearly 10 days of below-normal temperatures in Central Texas—including the fifth-coldest late-January stretch on record with an average of just 37.9 degrees—Austin is finally seeing a welcome warmup. Monday brings highs in the upper 60s despite some cloud cover, with morning lows in the mid- to upper 30s. Temperatures continue climbing Tuesday, reaching the lower 70s, as southerly winds help push warmer air into the region ahead of an approaching system.

A weak cold front arrives Tuesday evening, but it won't bring dramatic changes like recent fronts. Highs dip only slightly to the mid-60s by Wednesday afternoon, with Thursday morning lows falling to the mid- and upper 30s for the coldest point. Precipitation chances remain low to nonexistent across most of the Austin area, as moisture stays limited and any showers are confined east of I-35. The region, facing extreme drought conditions affecting over 50% of Central Texas, continues to need significant rainfall.
