Rain in the forecast for July Fourth

SAN ANTONIO – Rain chances are in the forecast for July Fourth, with a few downpours possible late in the day in San Antonio.

TIMING:

A disturbance currently over Louisiana will bring scattered showers east of San Antonio by midday Wednesday. 

The arrival of any rain in town likely won't be until the afternoon and evening. 

Rain chances will be in the 40 to 50 percent range when most fireworks shows get underway. The best shot for showers and storms will be overnight Wednesday into Thursday. 

WHAT TO EXPECT:

Most of the activity will be isolated to scattered showers.  Some heavier downpours are possible. Lightning and thunder are also possible, but severe weather is not expected.
