Sponsor Our ArticlesSan Antonio is preparing for icy conditions as the National Weather Service warns of possible freezing precipitation on February 21. Several local school districts have announced cancellations and postponements for after-school events to ensure the safety of students and staff. The icy forecast predicts up to 0.05 inches of ice in the Northside of the city, and schools are taking precautionary measures, including cancellations of events and rescheduling activities to avoid the weather impact. Parents and students are advised to stay informed as conditions develop.
San Antonio is bracing for a chilly situation as the National Weather Service has put out a warning about possible frozen precipitation hitting the area on February 21. Students and parents should be aware that several local school districts have announced cancellations and postponements in anticipation of the icy weather.
Weather models are showing about a 30% chance that the Northside of San Antonio could experience around 0.05 inches of ice. If you’re planning on heading up towards the Texas Hill Country, you might want to take extra precautions as they could see up to a tenth of an inch of ice. The freezing rain and light precipitation are expected to start between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. on Friday, February 21, and the risks from this freezing rain could linger all the way until about 9 a.m. on Saturday, February 22. Thankfully, temperatures are projected to rise above freezing after Saturday morning, and we should see a warm-up continue through February 23.
In light of the impending weather, the San Antonio Independent School District (SAISD) is being proactive by rescheduling or canceling student events that were set to happen after school on Friday. Coaches and sponsors are reaching out to affected students about further cancellations or postponements to keep everyone in the loop.
Similarly, the Southwest Independent School District (SWISD) has decided to cancel all soccer games scheduled for Friday, including all games in the SWISD Softball Tournament set for Saturday. This will help ensure the safety of students and athletes during the icy conditions.
Other districts are also making adjustments. The Judson Independent School District has called off all district events on Friday but has made an exception for the Judson HS Boys Basketball Playoff Game, which will still take place in Corpus Christi. Meanwhile, the Wagner HS Girls Basketball Playoff Game has been rescheduled to 3 p.m. on Saturday, February 22, so fans can still show their support!
Attention, Southside ISD families! It looks like several changes are happening due to the weather forecast. The Somerset Tournament in baseball has been rescheduled to March 22. Unfortunately, the Boys and Girls Track Meet at Central Catholic has been canceled, and varsity soccer games will also be rescheduled for later dates. Not to forget, the softball games at the Pearsall Tournament are canceled as well.
The Edgewood Independent School District (EISD) is taking precautions by canceling all activities starting at 6 p.m. on Friday through noon on Saturday. They will continue to monitor the weather for any updates. The Northside ISD is also rescheduling or canceling after-school events following consultations with the National Weather Service to ensure safety.
Meanwhile, the North East Independent School District (NEISD) has gone ahead with canceling and rescheduling all after-school events on Friday, as well as delaying Saturday morning activities to keep everyone safe. Not to be left out, Alamo Heights Independent School District (AHISD) has decided to reschedule the boys’ basketball playoff game from Friday to Saturday at 1 p.m., and soccer games scheduled for Friday have been moved up to earlier in the afternoon to beat the icy weather.
As we move forward, all of these districts are emphasizing that they will be continuously monitoring weather conditions for any upcoming events. It’s a great reminder to stay informed and prepare for any changes that might come up in the next few days. Let’s all keep an eye on the weather and stay safe!
