FORECAST

Isolated severe storms are possible mixed in with the beneficial rain moving through South-Central Texas this evening. Most of the showers and storms should be out of San Antonio after 10pm.

RAIN CHANCES TODAY/TONIGHT

While the best odds for substantial rainfall will be south and west of San Antonio, scattered activity will impact the metro area (60%). Rain chances continue through roughly 10pm, before winding down.

LOW HUMIDITY THIS WEEKEND

On Friday, we’ll be on the backside of the area of low pressure. That’ll give us gusty northerly winds and not-so-hot temperatures. A stray shower can’t be ruled out, but any rain would be brief and light.

For both Saturday and Sunday, mornings will be COOL. We’ll start in the upper-50s and end up in the 80s. Mother’s Day looks beautiful.

GET READY FOR HEAT

As nice as the weekend will be, next week is looking hot. By Tuesday, San Antonio is forecast to reach the mid-90s. Upper-90s are possible by midweek. The area’s typical hotspots (Del Rio, Cotulla) could be looking at triple digits. Unfortunately, the long-term forecast calls for rain-free conditions.
