Today's weather will start on a chilly note, but plenty of sunshine will help temperatures warm up nicely. Expect the high temperature to reach around 65°F just in time for lunchtime. Light winds will make outdoor plans comfortable this afternoon, but strong gusts are expected overnight.
As the arctic cold front moves in, residents can expect a significant temperature drop overnight. Prepare for wind chill values that could dip into the teens, prompting a hard freeze for the area. Be sure to dress warmly if you have any Sunday morning activities planned.
Looking ahead, an area of low pressure may bring light wintry precipitation to South Central Texas by Monday evening. While the precipitation is expected to be light, watch for potential icy patches on roads and surfaces. We’ll provide continuous updates and monitor the situation as Monday approaches.
Good Saturday morning, San Antonio. I’m meteorologist Mia Montgomery with your weather authority update. Today will start chilly, but we expect plenty of sunshine, helping temperatures climb to about 60°F by noon. The predicted high for today is around 65°F, making it relatively seasonable for this time of year. Winds will be light early in the day, blowing from the north at 5 to 10 miles per hour. However, expect gusty winds later, with gusts of 30 to 35 miles per hour overnight as an arctic cold front moves through. As this colder air surges into South Central Texas, tomorrow morning will bring significant chill with wind chill values dropping into the teens for the Hill Country and 20s for many areas. Actual air temperatures will be in the low 30s, indicating a hard freeze for regions in and around San Antonio. Prepare to bundle up if you have plans tomorrow morning. Hard freezes are expected to persist through Wednesday morning, but slight improvements are on the horizon as temperatures may begin to rise next weekend, leading to high temperatures in the 30s early next week. Additionally, an area of low pressure developing off the Gulf Coast could introduce some moisture into the weather mix next week. This may lead to minor wintry precipitation events on Monday night into Tuesday morning, possibly resulting in freezing rain, sleet, and even a slight chance of snowflakes. However, any wintry accumulation is likely to be light, posing only limited impacts. Be cautious of possible icing on elevated surfaces such as bridges and overpasses. We will monitor these conditions closely and provide you with updates. Make sure to complete your hard freeze preparations this weekend, as the first significant freeze arrives Monday morning in San Antonio.
