Expect wild weather changes in San Antonio this weekend.
San Antonio is preparing for a weekend of weather extremes as two cold fronts approach. Friday will start off warm, but a cold front with gusty winds will arrive early, followed by a second front bringing much colder temperatures in the evening. Fire risks may increase due to low humidity. Sunday is expected to be the coldest day, with temperatures only reaching the upper 60s. After the chilly weekend, a warm-up is projected at the start of next week.
Get ready, San Antonio! It’s a classic case of “hold onto your hats” this weekend as our charming city gears up for some rapid and unexpected weather changes. On Friday, the temperatures are feeling positively summery, but just wait – nature has a surprise in store!
This weekend, not one but two cold fronts are on their way to San Antonio. Yes, you read that right! A significant low pressure system from the southern Plains is scheduled to make its grand entrance this Saturday. But don’t worry, the first front, which hails from the Pacific, will be arriving between 6 and 9 a.m. While it won’t usher in a huge temperature drop, it will send in some gusty winds and dry air.
So, what can we expect from this first cold front? Well, it looks like we’ll be seeing sustained winds of 15 to 25 mph, with gusts rocking up to 35 mph by the afternoon. Along with the breeze comes a significant drop in relative humidity – expect it to plummet to around 20% or lower. This combo creates critical fire danger conditions across Central and South Texas.
While temperatures will be riding high in the mid-to-upper 70s during the early afternoon, don’t let that fool you. It’s important to keep an eye on your surroundings, as the combination of dry air and wind could pose risks for wildfires. The National Weather Service has even issued a Fire Weather Watch for the region due to the dry, breezy conditions anticipated on Saturday.
As we head toward the evening, hold on tight! The second cold front, this time with frigid polar origins, will glide in between 4 and 8 p.m. Say goodbye to those warm vibes, because after sunset, temperatures will take a nosedive into the 50s.
And overnight? Expect the chill to continue, with lows plunging into the lower to mid-40s by early Sunday morning. Some cozy towns in the Hill Country could even see temperatures dip into the 30s. So if you’re planning on a night out, be sure to bundle up!
Sunday is gearing up to be downright chilly, with temperatures lingering only in the upper 60s. Looks like it’s a perfect day to stay inside, grab a warm drink, and maybe catch up on that book you’ve been meaning to read. Whatever you choose to do, just make sure to keep your sweatshirts and blankets close!
Despite this weather rollercoaster, it seems brighter days are just around the corner. A warm-up is expected at the start of next week, with temperatures bouncing back to the mid-70s on Monday and climbing even closer to 80 degrees by Tuesday. So hang in there, San Antonio! Spring isn’t too far off.
In a nutshell, this weekend is going to be all about the contrasts, from warm winds to cooler temps. With lower humidity coming into play, let’s make sure to stay safe and mindful of fire risks. No matter what, it’ll be an adventure watching the weather unfold!
