Thanksgiving Weather Forecast for Austin

Looks like rain may force the family inside for Thanksgiving day in Austin.

The Austin area will be getting rain showers during the day Thursday that will gradually become scattered thunderstorms throughout the night, according to a weather.com forecast. So, if you were planning on playing two-hand touch in the backyard, you might have to settle for watching the pro’s play in your aunt’s basement.

But what’s more important is to remember to be safe on the wet roads if you are traveling on Thursday.

At least it won’t be cold for turkey day. The high temperature for the day is 76 degrees and the low is still a warm 67 degrees.

And if you were more excited for Black Friday than Thanksgiving, you’re also out of luck. Showers and thunderstorms are likely during the day and steady rain is predicted for Friday night, according to weather.com
