The skies over San Antonio today are painted a solid hue of overcast, as a chill wind slices through the city with an edge sharp enough to lower the wind chill to a biting 11 degrees Fahrenheit. According to a recent update from the National Weather Service, these conditions were last noted at 6:51 am CST today, bringing with them a humidity level that clings at 75%, a barometric pressure reading at 30.33 inches, and visibility extending to 10 miles.
The forecast for the remainder of the day suggests the clouds will gradually give way to sunshine, providing some respite from the cold. The temperature is expected to reach a high near 42 degrees, with north winds persisting around 15 mph, capable of gusting up to 30 mph. The city should brace itself to continue to face the cold with a low around 22 degrees tonight, as the north-northeast winds promise to persistently blow at a pace of 10 to 15 mph.
Tomorrow, residents can anticipate a sunny day with a high hovering around 43 degrees. The north-northeast wind is expected to slightly ease but could still gust to nearly 20 mph. As night falls, increasing clouds will usher in a low around 31 degrees, with the east-northeast wind calmer at 5 to 10 mph.
Friday will offer little change in terms of warmth, as it’s expected to remain cloudy with highs stalling near 39 degrees. The weekend teases a possibility of change with a 30 percent chance of showers after midnight on Friday night and a gradually warming trend peaking on Sunday with mostly sunny skies and a high near 65. The start of the new workweek looks markedly better; by Monday, San Antonio is set to bask in sunny weather with temperatures soaring to reach a high near 76 degrees, and Tuesday's high could potentially climb to a comfortable 81 degrees.
