Hey, y’all! 🌞 Welcome to your daily dose of Austin Texas Things, where we keep it as lively and local as a night out on Rainey Street. It’s Wednesday, July 10, 2024, and we’ve got a heap of happenings and news to share that’s as packed as Zilker Park on a sunny day. So, grab your iced coffee and let’s dive straight into the heart of Austin!
First up, let’s talk weather, shall we? Today’s looking mostly cloudy with a high of 97°F that’ll have you feeling like you’re walking through Barton Springs without the relief of a dip. We might see some thunderstorms in the afternoon, so keep that umbrella handy if you’re planning on braving the great outdoors. As for tonight, it’ll clear up a bit, dropping to a more comfortable 73°F – perfect for those late-night taco runs. 🌮☔
