FORECAST HIGHLIGHTS
- NO RAIN EXPECTED: Saturday or for at least the next seven days
- HIGH PRESSURE: Driving the stable, dry weather pattern
- EYES ON THE TROPICS: Watching for development
FORECAST
San Antonio enters the weekend with dry, warm, and breezy weather as high pressure holds steady. – We’re locked into a warm and dry stretch. While that’s not unusual for early fall in South Texas, it means little change in the forecast for the days ahead.
TEMPERATURES
If you’ve been hoping for a cooldown or a decent rain shower anytime soon, it’s probably not happening this week in South Texas. Consider this week a “Groundhog Day effect”—expect similar conditions day after day.
HUMIDITY STICKS AROUND
The rest of the country is seeing a more dynamic weather pattern, especially out west. A persistent low-pressure system in the Pacific Northwest is bringing rain to the Rockies, but most of that moisture is forecast to stay far from San Antonio.
Even with the lack of rainfall, the air won’t feel dry. The combination of steady Gulf moisture and added tropical humidity means dewpoints will stay in the muggy range, making it feel a few degrees warmer than the numbers show.
WATCHING THE ATLANTIC & PACIFIC
The National Hurricane Center is tracking a tropical wave that recently emerged off the African coastline. This system currently presents a 40% chance of intensifying, and while it’s still in the early stages, we are keeping a watchful eye on its potential evolution and possible trajectory.
EXTENDED FORECAST
For those hoping for rain, the week ahead looks mostly dry. While most of the area will remain dry, there is a slight chance of a shower or two near the Rio Grande or the Coastal Plains. But widespread rainfall is unlikely at this time.
