Austin, TX Weather Alert: Dense Fog Advisory and Upcoming Cold Front

Austin residents, brace yourselves! A dense fog advisory is officially in effect for Central Texas, including our lovely city, from 8 p.m. Tuesday through 10 a.m. Wednesday. As you prepare for the day ahead, remember that visibility could drop to less than a quarter-mile in some areas, making it a tricky morning for commuters and travelers alike.

What to Expect During the Advisory

This advisory isn’t just a small blip on the radar. It casts a wide net, covering many parts of South and Central Texas, including the bustling cities of San Antonio and Del Rio, as well as the scenic Hill Country. As you step out, keep an eye out because some areas may experience visibility so poor that it might feel like you’re in a scene from a mystery movie! Venturing out? Proceed with caution! Commuters are especially urged to

  • Drive at a slower pace
  • Utilize low-beam headlights
  • Maintain a safe distance from other vehicles

The National Weather Service has noted that in isolated spots, visibility may even approach zero! So it’s best to allow extra time for your morning commute and stay safe out there.

Light Drizzles to Greet Us

As if the fog wasn’t enough, light drizzle is expected to linger through Wednesday afternoon. So, grab that umbrella and don’t forget your favorite raincoat! If you think this means we’re in for a dreary day, think again. The meteorological scene is about to change as a Pacfic cold front rolls through Central Texas on Wednesday morning, forecasted to bring some scattered showers and even a chance of thunderstorms.

What Are the Temperature Expectations?

Expect quite a drop in temperatures during this transition. Wednesday morning will kick off with temperatures hovering around the mid- to upper 60s, but get ready to feel cooler by late morning as it tumbles down into the 50s and 60s. And let’s not forget the wind – once that cold front sweeps through, gusts could reach speeds of 25 to 35 mph. Hold onto your hats!

Looking Ahead: A Cooler Ending to the Week

As the week progresses, we’ll see things clear up a bit. By the end of the week, the skies are expected to clear, and the temperatures will take a dip. Thursday morning could see temperatures around the 40-degree mark right here in Austin, and even chillier in the suburbs. Farmers in the Hill Country might want to pay attention as a light freeze is likely on Thursday morning, so keep your plants covered!

Stay Updated!

As always, it’s best to stay informed. Residents are encouraged to keep an eye on real-time weather alerts from the National Weather Service. Keeping track of the weather can make all the difference during such unpredictable conditions. Stay cozy, stay safe, and enjoy the change that comes with this wintry weather in Austin!

Final Thoughts

Austin, it’s time to get your fog-prepping game on! With the weather turning chilly and wet, grab those cozy blankets and maybe a warm cup of cocoa. We’ll weather this storm together, and before we know it, the sun will shine again!
