Texas greets the morning under thick clouds as warm, humid air hangs over streets and rooftops. Damp pavement and a muted sunrise hint at a change already unfolding across South Texas.
Showers and thunderstorms develop through the late morning and early afternoon across the San Antonio area. Rain coverage remains scattered, but brief downpours could slow traffic during midday travel. Gusty winds may accompany stronger cells, reducing visibility on highways like I-35 and Loop 410. For now, flooding is not expected, but ponding on roadways is possible during heavier bursts.
Temperatures climb toward the mid-70s today, keeping conditions mild despite the rain. Winds shift north by evening, signaling a cooler pattern sliding in behind the departing system. Any lingering showers fade quickly after sunset, allowing skies to partially clear.
Saturday brings a sharp but comfortable change. Sunshine returns, but stronger north winds gust up to 35 mph at times. Afternoon highs reach the low 60s, making it feel cooler than recent days. Secure loose outdoor items and expect breezy conditions along open roadways.
By Saturday night, temperatures fall into the mid-30s under mostly clear skies. While a hard Freeze is not expected, the cooler air will feel noticeably crisp for January in South Texas. Sunday stays pleasant, with partly sunny skies and highs near 62 degrees. Winds relax through the afternoon, making outdoor plans more comfortable.
Meteorologists continue tracking more active winter weather north of Texas. Locally, timing matters more than intensity. Today’s showers give way to a dry, cooler stretch that sets the tone into early next week.
Plan extra time if traveling during midday rain. Keep a light jacket ready this weekend as winds increase and evenings cool quickly.
