Get used to the early winter weather, at least for about the next week.

The National Weather Service has issued a winter weather advisory from 9 a.m. to midnight Saturday ahead of a storm that could bring to 2 to 5 inches of snow.

The Austin area already received about 2 inches of snow earlier this week, but the November snow isn’t exactly abnormal.

“We do typically get snowstorms in the month of November, it’s just that we’re in a very cool, unseasonably cool pattern right now,” NWS Meteorologist Dan Jones said.

Temperatures aren’t looking to warm up just yet. On Friday, highs will top out around 20 before falling to a low of 8, with wind chill values dropping to -1, according the weather service.

Highs in the low to mid-20s are expected over this weekend, and highs will stay in the teens Monday and Tuesday.

“We’re looking at at least another week here to be unseasonably cold,” Jones said.

High temperatures are expected to warm to the upper 20s by next Thursday and Friday before climbing into the 30s and above freezing next weekend.

“This is just an unseasonably cold pattern that we’ve got into,” Jones said.
