The upcoming week in San Antonio promises largely clear skies and sweltering temperatures. Temperatures are set to rise, reaching a high near 93 degrees today, with an east southeast wind blowing at 5 to 10 mph. As sun-soaked day gives way to night, the skies will remain mostly clear as temperatures dip to around 74 degrees, offering a mild respite from the heat, according to forecasts from the National Weather Service

Sunday might see a slight change in the pattern with a 20 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms after 1 pm, yet the sun is expected to prevail with highs mirroring Saturday's. The heat index, however, could climb up to a sweltering 105 degrees, making for a potentially oppressive afternoon. The light breezes of today are poised to continue through the night, as the low falls to near 77 degrees.

Heading into Monday, the forecast calls for more sunshine and a climb in temperatures, with a high near 94 degrees. The light south southeast wind will pick up slightly, reaching 5 to 10 mph in the afternoon. The evening will bring partly cloudy skies, and temperatures are expected to hold steady with a nighttime low near 77 degrees.

The pattern of sun and climbing temperatures continues into Tuesday and beyond, with highs persistently hovering around the low-to-mid 90s. Nighttime conditions seem to echoe days prior with partly cloudy skies and lows lingering in the upper 70s. This steady bout of weather is a reminder of the region's familiar summer climate.
