Nice with some sun returning. High: 70 Low: 58.

Here are the top three stories in Round Rock today:

1. On Sunday, volunteers with Ascension Leadership Academy painted a new mural in downtown Round Rock to raise awareness of sexual assault. The mural was created on behalf of Hope Alliance, a Williamson County nonprofit that supports survivors of domestic violence and abuse. The group of volunteers painted the mural on the wall of Supernova Tattoo, a downtown spot with high visibility and plenty of foot traffic. (KVUE.com)
2. The United States Postal Service (USPS) is looking to fill positions in the Austin-Round Rock-Georgetown area.
