About

The mission

Forecast Austin is the definitive portal for Central Texas's weather and climate — built to make the official National Weather Service forecast fast, clean, and highway-clear across the five-county metro, from Georgetown and Round Rock through Austin to San Marcos and Lockhart.

Central Texas weather runs to extremes: triple-digit summer heat and drought, the flash-flooding of Flash Flood Alley, spring hail and severe storms, the ice and the historic February 2021 freeze, and the mountain-cedar season that brings cedar fever. Forecast Austin is being built to tell that story — county by county, corridor by corridor.

The design language

The look borrows from the American Interstate system — the reflective paper, the green guide signs, the blue service signs, the brown recreation signs, and the red-white-and-blue route shields — set in Overpass. As a metro site its hero is the county grid rather than a state outline, in a Texas burnt-orange accent — its own note in the network.

Companions & the network

Forecast Austin is a metro zoom-in on Central Texas. Texas doesn't yet have its own Forecast <State> site — statewide forecasts live on weather.city — but Austin is part of the wider Forecast network.
