Weather in Austin
Curious about the best time to visit Austin? The gorgeous Texas weather means blazing summer days with mild winters. Summer temperatures often reach triple digits in August, but these days are perfect for cooling off in the river or with a day at the lake. Winters rarely dip below 50 degrees Fahrenheit during the day, which makes it easy to warm up with a coat and light layers. April is one of the best times to visit Austin, right after the crowds of the South by Southwest Festival dwindle and before the summer heat rises.
