San Antonio is bracing for a scorcher of a week, with temperatures forecasted to soar above the century mark for several days in a row. The National Weather Service has predicted highs teetering near 105 degrees, accompanied by heat index values that could feel as hot as 108 degrees today. Residents should prepare for "mostly sunny and hot" conditions that are expected to persist well into the weekend.
According to the National Weather Service, winds will remain steady from the south, with gusts reaching up to 20 mph today and potentially as high as 25 mph tonight. The weather pattern holds little reprieve overnight, as lows are predicted to only drop to the mid-70s.
Thursday and Friday promise similar swelter, with forecasts hovering around 104 degrees and 100 degrees, respectively. The nights will bring little relief, with "mostly cloudy" conditions and temperatures lingering around the mid to high 70s, as reported by the National Weather Service. The chance for isolated showers and thunderstorms creeps in Friday night, though with only a 20% chance of precipitation, it's unlikely to break the relentless heat gripping the region.
As the weekend rolls in, there is no significant cooldown in sight. "Partly sunny and hot" is the mantra stretching into next week, with predictions holding steady near the 100-degree mark. The National Weather Service's extended forecast doesn't promise much in terms of rain either, barring "isolated showers and thunderstorms" with a scant 20% chance on Tuesday.
