The skies over San Antonio have been grumbling today, with the National Weather Service reporting showers and a possible thunderstorm this morning, followed by a chance of more rain and thunderstorms into the early afternoon. The temperature is expected to hover near a comfortable 84 degrees, with erratic winds shifting from the north northeast to south. As the chance of precipitation stands at a heavy 90%, the people of San Antonio will likely be reaching for their umbrellas ceaselessly throughout the day.

As night falls, the city can expect a brief respite with increasing clouds and a lower temperature around 68 degrees, and the East southeast wind blowing gently at around 6 mph, the National Weather Service detailed in its forecast. The relative peace of tonight, may lead into a foggy start on Monday morning. The fog is expected to clear before 10am, paving the way for an almost sunny sky and a high nearing a balmy 89 degrees.

It seems there's no complete relief in sight, as both the National Weather Service and KSAT point towards a persistent pattern of unpredictable weather for San Antonio residents throughout the week. According to KSAT's weather forecast, after the fog lifts on Monday, citizens should prepare for increasing cloudiness again by Monday night, with lows expected around 71 degrees.

Looking ahead, Tuesday will bring a 30 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms after the peak of noon, and this trend will likely continue through to Wednesday, with the mercury lingering around the mid-to-high 80s. By evening, residents should brace for mostly cloudy conditions and lows sitting just shy of the mid-70s, indicative of the area's typically muggy spring climate.

As the week progresses, locals should keep their rain gear handy. Both Thursday, and Friday, offer no exception to the spate of showers and thunderstorms – it will again be partly sunny with highs nearing 85 degrees, and nighttime lows drooping to the upper 60s. San Antonio's Saturday also seems fickle, with "a chance of showers and thunderstorms" and partly sunny conditions, according to KSAT. The "mostly cloudy" weather comes with high temperatures flirting with the mid-80s, suggesting that this week, while wet, will be warm nonetheless for the residents of this vibrant Texas hub.
