FORECAST

TRIPLE DIGITS

99 or 100? Does it matter? Only when it comes to stat keeping. Should we hit the triple-digit mark today, it would only be the second time this year. Year-to-date, we are faring much better than in previous years.

SMOKE FROM WHERE?!

Skies will be mostly sunny, but a bit hazy. That’s because wildfire smoke, which has traveled ALL the way from Oregon and Washington, will be suspended over Texas. It’s generally a light concentration and suspended far up in the atmosphere. Air quality should not be a problem.

FAST-MOVING RIVERS

Rivers continue to flow swiftly in the wake of heavy rain over the last month (Copyright KSAT-12 2026 - All Rights Reserved)

Rainfall Saturday once again prompted issues along the Frio and Nueces. While the rainfall totals weren’t huge, they added to already fast flowing rivers. Here’s a look at the flows of area rivers. These are some of the highest numbers we’ve seen in a long time.

SEA BREEZE SHOWERS

The heat high is slightly west of Texas. This means that yes, it will be hot, but not as scorching as it would be if that heat high was directly overhead.

The high will mostly keep rain at bay, but there is a chance that a few sea breeze showers may move in from the Gulf Friday through Sunday.
