SAN ANTONIO, Texas – South Texas wakes under calm skies this Wednesday morning, but a quick warmup and gusty winds are on the way by Thursday. The mild, clear start will give way to highs in the mid-80s—nearly 10 degrees above average for mid-November—before a subtle pattern change hints at cooler air this weekend.
According to the National Weather Service in Austin/San Antonio, steady south winds will strengthen through Thursday afternoon, with gusts as high as 20 mph. Those winds, combined with dry ground and low humidity, could raise localized fire concerns west of I-35 and along the Hill Country. Residents planning leaf cleanup or early holiday travel should secure lightweight items outdoors and stay alert for burning restrictions.
By Friday, daytime warmth will persist, but slightly more clouds will build as a weak boundary approaches from the north. Forecasters note a modest drop in temperatures arriving by late Saturday, bringing highs back to the upper 70s and more comfortable humidity levels—ideal for outdoor events or early Thanksgiving decorating.
While no rain is expected, mild nights in the 60s will keep any frost or freeze risks off the table for at least another week. Still, with late-fall transitions setting up across the Plains, a cooler shift may arrive before Thanksgiving week. For now, South Texans can expect crisp mornings, breezy afternoons, and a stretch of picture-perfect skies—classic November warmth before winter’s slow approach.
