San Antonio, Texas – Strong to severe storms are expected to strike parts of Central Texas this afternoon into the evening, with the highest risk centered along I-10 east of San Antonio, including areas like Seguin, New Braunfels, and Gonzales.
According to the National Weather Service in Austin-San Antonio, a Level 2 out of 5 risk is in place through Wednesday evening, with the most dangerous weather likely arriving mid-afternoon. Hazards include damaging wind gusts, large hail, isolated tornadoes, and locally heavy rain that could cause flash flooding.
The most intense activity is forecast for cities including San Marcos, Luling, and La Grange. Residents along I-10 and Highway 90 should prepare for sudden downpours and possible road closures. Outdoor plans should be reconsidered, and everyone is urged to keep phones charged and enable weather alerts.
This is the second day in a row of strong storms in the region, and saturated ground may increase flash flooding potential. If tornado warnings are issued, take shelter immediately in a sturdy building away from windows.
Storm chances taper off late tonight, but more alerts could be issued as conditions evolve.
