Sponsor Our ArticlesA winter weather advisory is in effect for San Antonio and nearby areas from Friday evening until Saturday morning. Expect freezing drizzle and slick road conditions, particularly in elevated areas. Caution is advised for travelers. Additionally, temporary shelters are provided for those experiencing homelessness during this cold snap. Residents should prepare for icy conditions and potential power outages, although widespread outages are not expected. Warmer temperatures are anticipated after Saturday morning, but light showers may persist through the day.
San Antonio residents, it’s that time of year again! A winter weather advisory has been issued for parts of Central and South Texas, and yes, that includes our very own beautiful city. So, grab your warmest jacket and get ready for some icy weather this weekend!
The advisory kicks off at 6 p.m. on Friday and will stick around until 9 a.m. on Saturday. Mark your calendars because if you’re planning any evening plans, you’re going to want to keep a close eye on the weather!
Seven counties are hit by this wintery warning: Hays, Comal, Bexar, Caldwell, Guadalupe, Wilson, and Gonzales. So, if you live in or are driving through cities like San Antonio, San Marcos, New Braunfels, Spring Branch, Seguin, or Lockhart, expect some slick conditions.
Here’s what’s happening: freezing drizzle is likely from Friday night through Saturday morning. This means roads are going to be slick! So, if you’re hitting the road, be prepared for some tricky driving conditions. Untreated highways and elevated roads like bridges and overpasses are especially prone to becoming very slick.
It’s projected that ice accumulations will be light, ranging from a few hundredths to a tenth of an inch. But don’t let that fool you! The areas that are likely to see the highest accumulations of ice are in northern Bexar County and regions like Comal and Hays counties, which are expected to be colder than the San Antonio metro area.
If you absolutely must travel during this advisory, it’s advisable to use caution. Remember to leave some extra space between vehicles because we all know that stopping could take a bit longer than usual. As tempting as it might be to run those errands, it might be best to stick to the couch and avoid the roads until the weather clears up!
The chilly temperatures are expected to rise above freezing after 9 a.m. on Saturday, so hang in there! Once that happens, the ice threat will come to an end. But don’t pack away your umbrella just yet! Scattered showers and drizzle will still be around with high temperatures hitting the low 40s throughout Saturday.
In light of the freezing temperatures, the city will be providing temporary overnight shelters for those experiencing homelessness during this advisory period. The designated overnight resilience hub will open at the Northeast Senior Center from 5 p.m. on Friday until 10 a.m. on Saturday, offering a warm place to stay as well as basic supplies. Hats off to the city for reaching out to those in need!
While widespread power outages are not anticipated, residents are still encouraged to be prepared just in case. Better to be safe than sorry! And please remember, as nice as it can be to see the ice from your window, it’s a much better idea to stick indoors if possible and avoid any unnecessary travel during these icy conditions.
So there you have it, San Antonio! A little icy weather might be in store, but if we take the necessary precautions, we can all get through it safely. Stay warm and stay safe!
