So, if you were planning to keep your weekend chill, the weather is fully on board… but maybe not in the way you hoped. Austin is about to throw down a little bit of everything — morning thunderstorms, sweater weather, and then a surprise sunshine comeback just when you need it most.
Let’s break it down day by day.
Saturday: Mornings Are for Thunder and Coffee Indoors
Wake up early enough on Saturday and you’ll probably hear it before you see it — rumbles of thunder, scattered showers, maybe even some gusty wind and hail rolling through parts of the city. It’s not going to be an all-day washout, but the morning will definitely feel stormy and unsettled.
Once the storm front pushes through, things start to dry out… but don’t expect it to warm up. That springtime glow? Taking the day off.
-
High: 67°F
-
Low: 44°F
Real Talk: You’ll want a jacket, and maybe keep your weekend errands for the afternoon once the skies calm down. Also, tie down that patio umbrella — this wind might have opinions.
Sunday: Cold, Cloudy, and Perfect for Doing Absolutely Nothing
If Saturday felt like a cool-down, Sunday is straight-up brisk. The clouds hang around, the sun plays hard to get, and it just feels like one of those days where you never change out of your hoodie.

High: 60°F

Low: 43°F
What to Expect: That kind of cold where you question why you packed away your winter clothes already. Honestly, it’s a great day to cancel plans, order comfort food, and scroll Zillow listings you can’t afford.
Monday: Okay, Spring’s Back — Let’s Go Outside Again
After two gray, chilly days, Monday will feel like someone opened the blinds on Austin. Skies clear up, the sunshine is back, and it actually starts to feel like spring again — warm, but not sweaty, with a light breeze that makes you want to walk a little slower.
