San Antonio is starting Friday with clear skies, calm conditions and temperatures near 68 degrees, but the easy morning will give way to a hot afternoon. Highs should reach about 91 degrees under mostly sunny skies, with virtually no chance of rain.

A light northeast breeze around 5 mph will offer only modest relief as temperatures climb through the afternoon. Friday night should turn mostly clear, with temperatures settling near 67 degrees.

Dry Weekend Keeps The Heat On

Saturday will be sunny, with a high near 89 degrees and winds from the south. Sunday is expected to be generally sunny, with a high near 92 degrees and southeast or onshore flow.

The National Weather Service expects the dry pattern to hold through the weekend, while small rain chances return Monday. A slight chance of showers is expected Monday, with a high near 91.

Ozone Action Day Set For Friday; Ozone Conditions Expected Saturday

The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality has issued an Ozone Action Day for San Antonio on Friday and expects ozone-producing conditions Saturday; any next Ozone Action Day will be issued by 3 p.m. Friday. The National Weather Service advises residents to help limit pollution by carpooling, avoiding drive-through lanes, conserving energy and keeping vehicles properly tuned.

Heat remains the main story into next week, with highs near 93 degrees Tuesday and Wednesday. A better chance for rain arrives Thursday, when light rain showers are expected; the new forecast is a substantive shift from Hoodline's earlier forecast, which focused mainly on the weekend heat.
