Central Texas Weather Forecast – July Fourth, and Beyond
Hey there, Central Texas! Ready to celebrate Independence Day in style? We’ve got your firework forecast and a look at the week ahead, including a certain tropical storm you might have heard whispers about. Buckle up, because things are about to get interesting!
Fireworks Forecast (July Fourth Evening)
Good news, folks! Mother Nature seems to be in a patriotic mood. Expect mostly clear skies for your firework festivities. Temperatures will be gradually cooling through the nineties, but hey, it’s Texas in July, so grab that handheld fan anyway.
A gentle southeast breeze will be blowing, with gusts picking up to mph. Just a heads-up for anyone with those giant inflatable Uncle Sams in their front yard – you might want to secure those a little extra!
Friday’s Forecast (July Fifth)
Okay, back to reality. Friday brings the heat, with highs nearing triple digits. And yeah, you guessed it – the humidity’s gonna make it feel even hotter. If you can, channel your inner armadillo and stay inside during the peak afternoon hours. Hydration is key, people! Water, iced tea, maybe even a sneaky Topo Chico or two – whatever keeps you cool and refreshed.
The morning might start off a tad cloudy, but fear not, the sun will be making a triumphant appearance by afternoon. Expect mostly sunny skies throughout the rest of the day. The southeast wind will be pretty chill, blowing at a gentle mph.
Weekend Forecast (July Sixth-Seventh) and Tropical Storm Beryl Update
Alright, y’all, this is where things get a little more…tropical. We’ve got a weak front moving into Central Texas on Saturday, bringing with it a chance of isolated showers and storms, especially in the afternoon and evening. Our friends in the Hill Country might see a slightly higher chance of rain, around percent. So, if you’re planning any outdoor shenanigans, maybe have a backup plan just in case.
Sunday is where Tropical Storm Beryl decides to make a guest appearance (or at least sends some rain our way). Beryl is currently strutting her stuff across the Yucatan Peninsula, but the latest models suggest she could re-strengthen to a Category hurricane before making landfall near the Deep South Texas/Northern Mexico border. Now, before you start filling bathtubs with water and stocking up on canned goods, remember that the exact track and intensity after Beryl crosses the Yucatan are still a bit uncertain.

Now, before you start filling bathtubs with water and stocking up on canned goods, remember that the exact track and intensity after Beryl crosses the Yucatan are still a bit uncertain.
Here’s what we’re thinking in terms of potential impacts on Central Texas come Monday and Tuesday:
- Higher Confidence: Get those rainboots ready! There’s an increased chance of scattered showers throughout the region, regardless of Beryl’s exact path.
- Track Dependent Impacts: This is where things get trickier. If Beryl tracks farther north, closer to San Antonio, we could see gustier winds and heavier rainfall. A northwest track, along the Rio Grande, would bring more widespread rain to the area. However, if Beryl decides to sashay farther south and west, South Central Texas might actually end up with drier conditions. It’s a wait-and-see situation, folks!
And a quick heads-up for our coastal compadres: regardless of where Beryl eventually makes landfall, expect high surf, rip currents, and the possibility of coastal flooding, especially by Sunday. So, maybe hold off on that weekend surf trip, yeah?
Looking Ahead: Staying Informed About Beryl
We know you’re eager for more concrete details, and trust us, we are too! We’ll be closely monitoring Tropical Storm Beryl’s every move and will provide updated forecasts as her track and intensity become clearer.

Closing: Enjoy the Fireworks (and Stay Safe!)
