TEXAS – Central Texas will feel more like August than mid-October this weekend as temperatures soar well into the 90s across San Antonio and the I-35 corridor. The National Weather Service in Austin/San Antonio reports that Friday through Monday will bring abnormally warm and dry conditions, with little sign of rain or a fall cooldown before midweek.
Friday’s highs will reach around 92°F, with Saturday and Monday potentially touching 94°F, about 10–12 degrees above average for this time of year. Residents planning outdoor events, pumpkin patch visits, or football tailgates should stay hydrated and take frequent breaks in the shade.
While humidity will stay moderate, gusts near 20 mph Saturday could increase fire danger in grassy and rural areas west of I-35. Drivers traveling toward New Braunfels and San Marcos should also be cautious of dry roadside vegetation.
Sunday will bring bright skies and slightly cooler conditions, though still hot by fall standards, with highs near 88°F. The next notable weather change doesn’t arrive until late next week, when a weak front may finally nudge highs back toward the mid-80s.
Until then, San Antonio will stay locked in a stubborn ridge of high pressure, keeping mornings warm and afternoons sizzling — a reminder that summer isn’t quite ready to let go of Texas.
