San Antonio residents are gearing up for a stretch of classic Texan summer heat as the forcast predicts temperatures to rise to around the 100-degree mark in the coming days. According to the National Weather Service, Wednesday will see a high near 103°F, with the mercury climbing even higher to 104°F by Tuesday.
Today's conditions feature a high near 100°F, with the heat index expected to make it feel as hot as 105°F. The South wind, aiding little to abate the swelter, comes at 5 to 10 mph. The nights offer little relief, with lows persistently hovering around the 79-degree mark, while the South southeast wind is predicted to occasionally gust up to 20 mph.

The weather conditions call for a steady pattern of searing heat, with calm winds in the morning becoming southeast around 5 mph during the afternoons.
