Triple-Digit Days in San Antonio: Fall is Just Around the Corner

Triple-Digit Days in San Antonio: Fall is Just Around the Corner

As San Antonio continues to swelter through the summer heat with triple-digit temperatures dominating the forecast, local residents may be eagerly anticipating a reprieve from the oppressive humidity and warmth. While the forecast for the latter part of August is unlikely to bring significant relief, subtle hints of autumn’s arrival are starting to emerge.

What to Expect in the Coming Weeks

The second half of August is set to remain hot, but residents can take comfort in knowing that relief is on the horizon. Notably, the official beginning of fall is marked by the autumnal equinox scheduled for 7:44 AM on Sunday, September 22.

Key Dates to Mark

  • September 22: Autumn officially begins.
  • Late September: Average first cold front typically arrives.
  • November 29-30: Average first freeze dates.

When Can We Expect Cooler Weather?

While the arrival of autumn is around the corner, it’s essential to understand that cooler temperatures are not guaranteed right away. Local meteorologists point out that while the astronomical start of fall is significant, it doesn’t necessarily equate to a drop in temperature. The first average cold front is typically expected to hit late September, bringing the first substantial cool-down of the season. However, this varies year to year.

Looking back at historical data, the area’s average for the first meaningful dip in temperature generally falls within late September. However, be prepared for potential surprises, as years can bring varied weather patterns.

Final Thoughts

As residents of San Antonio continue to endure the last stretch of summer, the promise of fall lingers just around the corner. The knowledge of upcoming seasonal shifts might just help in getting through the heat. Keep your spirits high—cooler days and vibrant autumn colors are on the way!
