San Antonio, get ready to weather the storm! As the chilly cold front heads towards our beloved city on Monday, November 4, the National Weather Service is raising the alarm about some serious storm activity sweeping across South Central Texas. Buckle up, because it looks like we’re in for a roller coaster of weather that might just keep you on your toes!
So, what’s the scoop? Well, according to the meteorologists, there’s an increased risk of severe storms from San Antonio all the way to Austin. We’re talking everything from tornadoes to large hail and damaging winds. The forecast predicts that from around 5 p.m. to midnight on Monday night, we’re looking at a Level 1 to Level 2 risk of severe storm activity. It’s a much bigger concern for folks in Austin and the picturesque Texas Hill Country towns nearby.
If you think you can dodge the storm in San Antonio, think again! Nearly every corner of South Central Texas is going to experience some level of threat this evening. The heavy hitters? Damaging wind and large hail, so make sure to keep your car in the garage if you can!
With a 70% chance of thunderstorms floating above San Antonio, and an even higher 80% chance in Austin, it looks like umbrellas will be a hot commodity tonight. The storms are expected to roll into San Antonio anytime between 9 p.m. and 3 a.m., so make sure you’re prepared! Over in Austin, you should expect the thunder to develop even earlier, likely before the clock strikes three in the morning. That thunder could wake you up, so best keep those windows shut!
Now if you thought the rain might be light, think again! Forecasters are advising that if these storms decide to stall instead of moving east, we could be looking at some heavy rain that could lead to isolated flooding. This isn’t your usual Texas shower – we’re talking potential rainfall amounts of more than 2 inches! So make sure to stay updated on the latest weather advisories, especially if you’re planning on heading out tonight.
But fear not, Texas! If the storms can just get past us, the cold front should bring some gorgeous, sunny yet cooler days to San Antonio by Tuesday. Temperatures are expected to drop below the 80-degree mark for the first time since last winter! Won’t that be a refreshing change? But hold on tight, because those sneaky thunderstorm chances are sticking around in Austin even into Tuesday morning.
As we look ahead, it seems like the cloudy skies will be looping back over the Alamo City by Wednesday night. So you might want to save those outdoor plans for the weekend if you can!
Stay safe, San Antonio! Whether you’re huddled at home or braving the drive-thru at Whataburger, make sure you’re taking these storm warnings seriously. Let’s ride out this weather together, and here’s to hoping for clear skies in no time!
