FORECAST

TODAY

Hot & humid. A high temperature near 98 will translate to a heat index in the range of 102-105 in San Antonio. Those closer to the coast could see heat indices as high as 109.

SEA BREEZE

As high pressure shifts west, the sea breeze may be enough to stir up some brief showers Friday through Monday. The sea breeze is a boundary created by temperature differences between Gulf waters and land temperatures. Southeasterly winds push the boundary inland and occasionally it can kick up some weak showers.

BACK-TO-SCHOOL

Monday is the first day of school for some in San Antonio. Know that not much changes from what we are seeing now. It’ll be hot & humid, while rain chances stay very low. After-school, outdoor practices will require lots of hydration!
