The weather in San Antonio looks to be a mixed bag in the coming days, with a slight chance of rain, areas of fog, and potential for showers and thunderstorms rolling through the area. According to the National Weather Service, there's a modest 10 percent chance of early rain today, but mostly, the Alamo City will stay dry with cloudy skies and a high nearing 75 degrees. Calm breezes are expected to pick up a north-easterly direction as the day progresses.
Tonight, San Antonians should anticipate more cloud cover, with temperatures dropping to around 61 degrees. The winds will take a lazy turn to the east at around 5 mph before deciding to head south past the stroke of midnight. Friday morning drivers might encounter some patchy fog between their 8am and 11 am commutes. The rest of the day is slated to remain cloudy with temps peaking at about 76 degrees and the winds maintaining their southern hospitality.
The real action appears to be queued up for the weekend when a 30 percent chance of showers after 1am on Friday night provides the opening act for what could be a stormy Saturday. The National Weather Service foresees a 50 percent chance of showers on Saturday, with thunderstorms possibly joining in after 7 am amidst more foggy conditions.
Saturday night's forecast doesn't stray far from the narrative, as the city has a 40 percent shot at showers and thunderstorms before evening fades and then again post-midnight. Lows are expected to hover around 58 degrees with easterly winds taking it up a notch to around 10 mph. The skies clear up by Sunday afternoon after a 40 percent chance of morning showers and storms, with sunny conditions prevailing later in the day as gusts may reach as high as 30 mph, transitioning from south to northwest.

The sunny streak holds into Tuesday, followed by a partly cloudy night, leading up to a partly sunny Wednesday with a high approaching a comfortable 69 degrees.
