SAN ANTONIO, TX – Thick morning fog blankets San Antonio this Thursday, reducing visibility to under two miles in spots and creating slick conditions along I-10, I-35, and Loop 410. Headlights glow in the mist as steady drizzle adds a damp chill to the early-December air.
According to the National Weather Service in Austin/San Antonio, the region faces a 40% chance of showers through Friday morning, with occasional pockets of heavier rain. Fog will persist through midmorning, gradually lifting as winds shift north around 10 mph. Drivers are urged to slow down, use low beams, and allow extra braking space — especially near rivers, bridges, and low-lying areas where visibility is poorest.
By Friday afternoon, drier air begins to move in, pushing highs into the mid-50s before a sharp rebound Saturday brings sunshine and highs near 72°F. This will make for ideal outdoor conditions heading into the weekend — a welcome break for holiday shoppers and travelers after several days of gloom and fog.
Sunday stays clear and mild, with only light breezes and cool mornings in the low 40s. The next chance for rain doesn’t appear until mid-next week as another weak front approaches from the west.
Five-Day Outlook (San Antonio Area):
- Friday: High 54°F, mostly cloudy with scattered showers.
- Saturday: High 72°F, mostly sunny and warm.
- Sunday: High 72°F, sunny, calm winds.
- Monday: High 62°F, mostly clear.
- Tuesday: High 68°F, bright and mild.
