San Antonio residents should keep their umbrellas close at hand this week, as forecasts from both the National Weather Service and local news outlet KSAT predict several rounds of rain and thunderstorms. A grim, cloudy sky is expected to unload sporadic showers and thunderstorms today, with a 50% chance for precipitation after 1 p.m., as reported by the National Weather Service. Alongside, today's conditions include a high temperature flirting with a sultry 82 degrees, accompanied by gusts of wind up to 18 mph.

After tonight's fog clears, the city will see a 50% chance of nocturnal showers and thunderstorms, says the KSAT weather team. The southeast wind is predicted to pick up, gusting as high as 20 mph and setting the backdrop for a potentially stormy Tuesday morning with a 60% likelihood of rain. The turbulence should relent by afternoon, giving way to sunshine and a more agreeable high of 85 degrees.

San Antonio's skies are scheduled to clear up by Wednesday, with forecasts promising a sunlit day, albeit with gusts strong enough to rattle the windowpanes, reaching up to 34 mph. The midweek reprieve will cool down the nighttime temperature to a brisk 54 degrees.

The remainder of the week appears to tip toward the calmer side, with the sun firmly in command of the sky and daytime highs climbing from 81 degrees on Thursday, to a toasty 88 degrees come Sunday. Residents should enjoy a Friday high of 83 degrees, under mostly sunny conditions, before the mercury slithers back down to 60 degrees at night, with only a touch of cloud cover," according to sources from the National Weather Service.
