FORECAST

SATURDAY

The first half of Saturday stays mainly dry, but by midday, the front pushes into the Hill Country and reaches San Antonio after 2 p.m.

SATURDAY NIGHT

The strongest storms may produce wind gusts of 60–70 miles per hour and up to golf ball-sized hail. Rounds of storms continue off and on through the night with downpours lingering into early Sunday.

Street flooding and flash flooding are likely in low‑lying areas and water crossing, especially important in a region as flash flood‑prone as San Antonio.

SUNDAY

Storms won’t be continuous, and there will be breaks between rounds of rain. By around 2 p.m., the heaviest activity moves out and leave highs in the 60s and 70s.

THIS WEEK

Rain chances return Tuesday as another disturbance approaches Texas.

Expect scattered to widespread showers and thunderstorms, with a low-end risk for a few strong to severe storms. Rainfall totals look modest overall, but pockets of heavier rain remain possible.

If current weakening trends hold, rainfall may end up lighter than hoped — offering limited drought help.
