San Antonio woke to clear skies and temperatures around 61 degrees Friday morning, but the calm setup will not last all weekend. Sunshine will push the city to about 77 degrees Friday afternoon before a wetter, cooler pattern settles in. North winds could gust near 25 mph, adding a brisk edge to an otherwise pleasant day.
Sunny Friday Gives Way To Weekend Rain
Friday night will turn mostly cloudy with a low near 61 degrees, followed by a cloudy Saturday and a high around 72. Rain chances rise after 3 p.m. Saturday, with showers and thunderstorms becoming likely Saturday night as northeast winds gust up to 30 mph. The National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio office says the weekend rain should be steady rather than dominated by repeated torrential downpours.
Sunday looks like the wettest day in San Antonio, with an 80% chance of showers and thunderstorms and a high near 65 degrees. Rain remains likely Monday, when the high should also stay near 65, while the forecast discussion says many parts of South-Central Texas could receive 2 to 4 inches through Monday. Even areas that miss the higher totals could still see at least a half-inch to an inch.
A Sharper Turn Than Thursday’s Forecast
The wetter outlook is a substantial change from the more modest weekend rain chances described in Hoodline’s Thursday forecast. With no watches, warnings or advisories currently posted for the city, the practical concern is more about soggy roads, reduced outdoor comfort and possible storm interruptions than a major severe-weather setup.
Clouds Linger Before A Midweek Rebound
Rain chances taper Monday night, then San Antonio should begin drying out Tuesday under mostly cloudy skies with a high near 69 degrees. Veterans Day on Wednesday stays mild near 74 with only a slight shower chance, and Thursday looks mostly sunny with a high near 76. In other words, the umbrella may get a full weekend shift before the forecast hands it back to the closet.
