FORECAST
SATURDAY EVENING
No rain after sunset. Spurs watch parties will be toasty, but just fine. GO SPURS GO!
SUNDAY
Slightly higher rain coverage at 40%, and even a rumble of thunder or two -- especially in the afternoon. Still, for the most part, it will simply be hot & humid!
TROPICAL DEVELOPMENT? NOT SO FAST...
You may have seen on social media, local websites, and even some news outlets saying a “tropical system” is in the Gulf. This is categorically FALSE, and is being used as clickbait, in my opinion. It’s misleading and can cause unnecessary panic, just for clicks and attention.
Here’s the reality: There is an area of storms in the Bay of Campeche that the National Hurricane Center is monitoring, and is ONLY giving a very low, 20% chance of becoming a tropical system. Not a hurricane, not a tropical storm, just a messy area of disorganized storms with a LOT of moisture around it.
MONDAY & TUESDAY
The bottom line for San Antonio and the Texas coast is that there will be more rain in the forecast Monday through Tuesday. It could even lead to some flooding in spots. We are still needing more rain for our ongoing drought; we’ll just have to monitor the flooding risk.
This whole clickbait ordeal is a great reminder to make sure you follow trustworthy sources of weather! We hope that’s us 😊.
