San Antonio gets one last blast of summer Thursday, with mostly sunny skies and a high near 92 before a cold front brings showers and much stronger winds. The change arrives overnight, turning Friday into a breezy, noticeably cooler start to the weekend.
Thursday afternoon stays warm and mostly dry, with southeast winds around 5 to 10 mph. Rain chances remain minimal during the day, but showers could develop after 4 a.m. Friday as the front moves through, according to the National Weather Service.
Friday Brings Showers And 40-Mph Wind Gusts
Friday could start with a few showers before 7 a.m., followed by partly sunny skies and a high near 72. North-northeast winds will run 20 to 25 mph, with gusts reaching 40 mph, making the morning commute and any outdoor setup noticeably blustery.
The latest forecast is a substantive update to Hoodline’s earlier look at the incoming front, which had already pointed to a cooler weekend. Friday night stays partly cloudy with a low near 52, while north winds continue gusting as high as 40 mph.
Sunny And Cooler Through The Weekend
Saturday looks sunny with a high near 70, though north-northeast winds could still gust to 35 mph. Sunday brings another sunny day with a high near 73, followed by a mostly clear night and a low around 55.
Temperatures begin climbing again Monday, when the high should reach 78, then rise to about 83 Tuesday and 87 Wednesday. Rain chances remain low after Friday, giving San Antonio a mostly dry stretch for weekend plans.
Regional Flood Watch Remains Farther West
The weather service has posted a flood watch for Val Verde County from Thursday afternoon through Friday morning, but the San Antonio point forecast lists no active alerts. For residents here, the main local concerns are the early Friday shower chance, rapidly changing temperatures and strong north winds.
