The rain is gone, but as skies clear overnight, it will be a cold start Sunday AM.

I'm calling for a low near 32 in town, with a chance for lows a few degrees colder north and in the hill country. A FREEZE WARNING is in effect for parts of the hill country. Combined with breezy winds, wind chills may be near 20! It will then be a sunny day Sunday, but still cool and breezy with wind gusts 25-30 mph, highs in the upper 50s.

Mon AM will be another one with low temps flirting with the freezing mark, but it will then be a drastic warm up of 40 degrees Monday afternoon with highs topping 70. The spring-like weather should will continue next week, check out the 8-day forecast for specifics.
