In other areas, NWS Austin and San Antonio reports that potential dry and warm conditions could continue through the week. On Wednesday and through Friday, possible showers and thunderstorms are likely. A poor weather outlook could unload in central Texas, Hill Country, Rio Grande, and southern Edwards Plateau.
