FORECAST HIGHLIGHTS

FORECAST

After rainfall this morning (only .06″ at the airport), gusty winds are starting to kick in. The concerns for rapidly spreading wildfires is very high today not only for San Antonio, but for a large portion of Texas.

CLEARING SKIES

Skies will clear this morning, while humidity levels plummet. Temperatures today will reach the upper-70s.

GUSTS TO 50 MPH

Very gusty winds will take hold by mid-morning, as skies clear. West winds gusting to 45 to 50 mph will be possible from roughly 10am to 4pm. This will create blowing dust and difficult driving conditions for high profile vehicles. Expect high temperatures in the upper-70s and very low humidity.

🚨EXTREME FIRE DANGER🚨

Rarely do we see this much of Texas within an extreme fire danger, but with gusty winds for much of the state, low humidity, and drought conditions, rapidly spreading fires is a real concern. Something as small as a downed powerline could result in a major wildfire. It’s important to avoid anything that could create a spark today. A Red Flag Warning is in effect until 9pm tonight.
