On Friday and Saturday, it remained dry at the Red Bull Ring during the practice sessions, qualifying and the sprint race. On Sunday morning, the first showers have fallen in Spielberg, but we can only expect a few spells at the start of the Formula 1 race.
It's a rainy morning in Austria. According to Weather.com, there is still a 31 percent chance for some showers around 14:00 UK time, when the race starts. After that, the weather will clear up and it will stay dry for the rest of the race. So there is a small chance that we will see a start on the wet tyres. However, if it does rain, the drivers will probably switch to the slicks quickly.

The Formula 3 race did start in the rain in the morning. Until 10:00 showers will fall on the Red Bull Ring. From 12:00 there is another chance of rain until the start of the F1-race. Who knows, we might see Max Verstappen start from pole position on the rain tyres.
