San Antonio residents, it's time to keep those umbrellas at hand as the city expects a series of showers and possible thunderstorms this week. According to the National Weather Service, today's forecast includes a chance of rain before noon, followed by potential sporadic showers in the afternoon.

As the evening approaches, the likelihood of precipitation ramps up to 70%, with new rainfall amounts anticipated between a half and three quarters of an inch. The showers continue with possible thunderstorms after 9 p.m., while the overnight transition brings winds shifting north and cooling to a low around 62. Look forward to Tuesday when, after a mostly cloudy start, the day breaks free into sunshine with a more comfortable high of 77 degrees, as reported by the National Weather Service.
Midweek projections suggest a similar pattern, with Wednesday basking under sunny skies and a pleasant high of 79, while nighttime might offer a 30 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms after midnight.
