November forecast released: Will the rains continue?
November is typically our fourth coolest and sixth wettest month of the year in Austin.
AUSTIN (KXAN) -- October is supposed to be one of the wettest months of the year in Central Texas, but THIS October ended up being one of our driest!
As we head through November our luck seems to change as wet weather seems a good bet to start the month.
Rain chances may drop back down for the second week of November and the 8-14 day rainfall outlook leans "drier than normal" for this period.
November forecast released
On Thursday, the Climate Prediction Center released their final forecast for November and it spells a more promising month for rain.
While the outlook calls for "near normal" rain in Central Texas and "wetter than normal" for North Texas and the Texas Panhandle, this is an improvement over a previous forecast for November for the CPC which leaned drier for us. Also, "near normal" rainfall would be a welcome change for the area after back-to-back drier-than-normal months.
From a temperature perspective, the odds continue to lean warmer than normal for November.
What is normal in November?
November high temperatures typically drop from the upper 70s to start the month down into the upper 60s by the end of the month.
Lows typically drop from the mid 50s into the mid 40s by late in the month.
November is usually our fourth coolest month of the year and our sixth wettest month with 2.92" of rain on average.
