News Summary

San Antonio has experienced an unusually cold winter with temperatures dipping to or below freezing for 15 days. This is almost the same as the average of 14 freezes per winter. The city faced a cold snap recently, but warmer weather is on the horizon as meteorological spring approaches on March 1st. Short-range forecasts predict rising temperatures with highs in the mid-70s and less likelihood of future freezes in March, signaling a transition to spring.

San Antonio’s Winter Freeze Count Rises to 15 Days

San Antonio has had quite the chilly winter, recording a total of 15 days with temperatures plunging to or below freezing. That’s not too far off from the average of 14 freezes we usually see each winter. Perhaps winter decided to hold on a little longer this year, and it even turned up the thermostat for a brief time this past week!

The Recent Cold Snap

From last Wednesday to Saturday, the city experienced four straight days of sub-freezing temperatures. While most of us endured the cold bundled up in our warmest coats, those four days were a chilling reminder that winter wasn’t quite done with us yet. But as we start looking forward to warmer days, a sense of relief is in the air as meteorological spring approaches on March 1.

What’s Coming Up in the Weather?

So, what can we expect in the coming days? Short-range weather models are giving us some good news! They suggest that there shouldn’t be any further freeze occurrences for the rest of February. This week, high pressure is expected to blanket the western United States, serving up what looks to be above-average temperatures.

Starting early Monday morning, we can expect lows in the low 40s, along with some low clouds and a bit of patchy fog. But don’t let that fool you! By the afternoon, temperatures are set to soar to the mid-70s. It sounds like the perfect day to break out those spring outfits and enjoy some outdoor activities!

Warmer Days Ahead

As we roll into Tuesday and Wednesday, temperatures will continue to climb, reaching those delightful mid-to-upper 70s. It seems that Mother Nature is ready for a warm-up, just as many of us are itching for spring. However, keep an eye out for a weak cold front predicted to sweep through South Texas by Thursday. This might lower temperatures slightly, but highs will still hover in the low to mid-70s.

The Last Freeze: What to Expect

Historically, San Antonio’s average date for the last freeze of winter is February 23. March can bring its own surprises with about 36% chances of freezes historically recorded during the month. Most of these late freezes tend to happen in the first week, so we’ll want to keep our guard up just in case!

Looking Forward to March

As March kicks off, long-range models suggest a pattern of warm weather could persist in South Texas. Early March temperatures are projected to sit near or even slightly above average, with daytime highs generally in the upper 60s to low 70s and nighttime lows resting in the upper 40s to low 50s.

The likelihood of encountering another freeze in the first week of March looks quite low—cheers to that! As we move further into the month, the chances of any freeze occurring significantly decrease. In fact, if we look back over the last 25 years, San Antonio has only recorded two freezes after March 15. So, while there’s always a slim chance of an isolated late freeze, it seems more likely that we’ve seen our last chill of the season.

In summary, warmer days are fast approaching San Antonio! As we wave goodbye to winter’s three-day chill, let’s get ready to embrace the delightful warmth of spring!
