San Angelo, Texas – Bright sunshine will bake West Texas pavement today as San Angelo pushes toward 99 degrees. The bigger story starts Sunday, when triple-digit heat arrives and repeatedly returns through Wednesday.

According to the National Weather Service in San Angelo, today will be sunny and hot with a high near 99. Southeast winds develop near 5 mph this morning.

Mathis Field reported 73 degrees before 8 a.m. Humidity was 81%, with south winds around 3 mph.

That relatively mild morning will disappear quickly under full sunshine. People working outside should schedule water and shade breaks before afternoon temperatures approach 100.

Sunday reaches 100 degrees with southwest winds of 5 to 10 mph. Monday briefly slips to 99 before another pair of 100-degree afternoons Tuesday and Wednesday.

The warm mornings also matter. Lows stay between 73 and 74 degrees through much of the period, providing limited relief from afternoon heat.

Drivers using U.S. 87, U.S. 277 and Loop 306 should prepare for intense heat around vehicles and pavement. Carry water on longer trips and check coolant before leaving town.

Monday evening brings the strongest wind shown in the five-day data. Southeast gusts could reach 20 mph before winds ease.

The supplied San Angelo outlook contains no rain or thunderstorm chances through Wednesday. It also identifies no specific tornado, hail or flooding threat.

The Weather Prediction Center is tracking heavier rain and severe storms elsewhere across the West and Southwest. Those broader risks are not shown for San Angelo in the local data.

There is little sign of a meaningful cooldown after Wednesday. Thursday climbs to 101 degrees, while Friday reaches 100.
