San Antonio woke up to clear skies and a mild 72°F this morning (Monday, March 30, 2026), and the warm-up is already on. The city is expected to climb quickly into the upper 80s, with an afternoon high near 89°F. South-southeast winds of 5-15 mph, with gusts up to 25 mph, will make it feel extra breezy. Any low clouds or patchy morning murk should mix out by late morning, leaving mostly to partly sunny skies through the rest of the day.
Afternoon Winds Pick Up
Wind will be the main storyline for much of the day, with steady south-southeast breezes of 5-15 mph and higher gusts hanging on into the afternoon and evening. Overnight lows will settle into the mid 60s, and the warm streak continues with highs near 90°F on Tuesday (March 31, 2026) and around 92°F on Wednesday (April 1, 2026). If you are planning to spend time outside later today, especially on exposed patios, overpasses, or bridges, expect gusty conditions to be part of the deal.
Late-Week Storm Chances
Rain chances begin to creep back in late Wednesday night into Thursday, with a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms after about 1 a.m. Wednesday night. Odds look higher for scattered storms Thursday and again over the weekend. A stronger cold front could shove a line of showers and thunderstorms through the region by Saturday evening, dropping Sunday’s highs back into the upper 60s. While the exact timing and coverage are still a bit fuzzy, forecasters are watching a shift from dry to more active weather late this week and into the weekend. These details are according to the National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio.
Plan Ahead
No watches or warnings are in effect for the metro right now, but that could change later in the week. It is a good time to secure lightweight outdoor items that might go sailing in the wind and to keep an eye on radar before evening events as storm chances return. We have been tracking this warm-to-wet pattern in earlier updates; for recent background, see our coverage of the March heat wave.
