Sponsor Our ArticlesSan Antonio is preparing for a significant drop in temperatures as an Arctic cold front moves into the area. Residents enjoyed a mild 72 degrees but should brace for temperatures plunging to the 20s by Wednesday morning. Wind gusts are expected to reach 35 mph, leading to wind chill factors making it feel even colder. A Cold Weather Advisory and Extreme Cold Warning are in place, prompting city officials to open shelters for vulnerable populations and encourage residents to take necessary precautions against the severe cold.
San Antonio’s residents were enjoying a mild daytime high of 72 degrees, but things are about to take a frigid turn! An Arctic cold front has rolled into town, and temperatures are set to plummet dramatically. As the sun dips down tonight, prepare for a swift drop in the mercury, with temperatures expected to slide into the 30s by around 9 PM to 9:30 PM.
By the time you wake up on Wednesday morning, you may want to bundle up! The forecast predicts temperatures reaching the mid to upper 20s, marking it as the first night of prolonged sub-freezing weather in the area. This is certainly not the weather we typically associate with the Alamo City!
Interestingly, it’s not just the temperature that will make your skin feel the chill. Wind gusts are expected to reach around 35 mph or more, warranting a Wind Advisory in effect from tonight through Wednesday morning. With winds whipping around, the wind chill can make temperatures feel a bone-chilling 10 to 15 degrees cooler than the actual numbers. So yes, that means dressing warmly is not just a suggestion; it’s a necessity!
In light of these icy conditions, a Cold Weather Advisory is also in effect tonight for the wind chill temperatures dipping into the teens. Looking ahead, an Extreme Cold Warning will take hold tomorrow night through Thursday morning, with wind chill predictions forecasting a chilling reality of 7 to 15 degrees. That warning includes not just San Antonio but also the surrounding Hill Country!
For those living in southern tier counties near the Rio Grande, a little mist is expected early Wednesday. That could potentially lead to icy conditions on bridges and overpasses if temperatures hover near the freezing mark. But don’t worry—most roads should remain dry for your commute on Wednesday.
As for the rest of your week, Wednesday’s weather should transition from cloudy skies to a partly sunny afternoon. But don’t get too comfortable with the sunshine; Thursday starts clear and very cold before clouds roll in again by afternoon. By the time we arrive at Friday, brace yourself for overcast conditions with high temperatures struggling to hit the 30s.
As for precipitation, Friday holds a low chance of moisture, but keep an eye out for possible light showers late Friday night into Saturday morning, especially as temperatures hover around freezing.
A number of public libraries, senior centers, and community centers will serve as warming stations during regular hours, making it easier for everyone to find some shelter from the freezing temperatures. If you’re in need of transport, VIA is offering free transportation to and from these warming locations throughout the week.
