Friday: Heat intensifies across Central and South Texas<\/strong><\/p>\n The Memorial Day weekend<\/strong> begins on a hot and mostly dry note<\/strong> across Texas<\/strong>. If you’re planning to hit the road or get an early start on holiday activities this Friday<\/strong>, you\u2019ll likely have smooth conditions. Rain chances stay under 10%<\/strong> in most areas, with only a slight 20% risk of isolated storms brushing through West Texas<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Daytime highs will rise well into the 90s Fahrenheit (32\u201337\u00b0C)<\/strong> across Central<\/strong> and South Texas<\/strong>, while North Texas<\/strong> should see milder conditions in the upper 80s (31\u00b0C)<\/strong>. Despite the heat, most areas should remain under the 100\u00b0F (38\u00b0C)<\/strong> threshold.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Saturday: Scorching sun and rising humidity<\/strong><\/p>\n Saturday<\/strong> maintains the dry trend<\/strong>, making it ideal for travel or outdoor gatherings. However, temperatures will climb even higher<\/strong>, particularly across South<\/strong> and Central Texas<\/strong>, where many locations may flirt with or exceed 100\u00b0F (38\u00b0C)<\/strong>. The humidity<\/strong> will also ramp up, pushing heat index values<\/strong> into the triple digits across a broad swath of the state<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Expect humid and oppressive conditions<\/strong>, especially in metro areas like Austin<\/strong>, San Antonio<\/strong>, and the Hill Country<\/strong>, where outdoor comfort will diminish as the day progresses.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Sunday: Storm chances grow, especially in North Texas<\/strong><\/p>\n By Sunday<\/strong>, the weather pattern<\/strong> becomes more volatile<\/strong>. North Texas<\/strong>, including the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex<\/strong>, faces a 50% chance of thunderstorms<\/strong>. This part of the state lies directly in the path of developing instability<\/strong>, making it the most at risk<\/strong> for severe weather<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Farther south, cities like San Antonio<\/strong> could also see storm activity<\/strong>, albeit with a lower 20-30% chance during the evening. Although a widespread outbreak<\/strong> isn\u2019t expected, the moisture-rich air<\/strong> and unstable atmosphere<\/strong> could generate large hail<\/strong> and damaging wind gusts<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Monday: Memorial Day brings cooler temps and scattered storms<\/strong><\/p>\n On Memorial Day itself<\/strong>, a cold front<\/strong> sweeping across the state will shift the focus southward. Central<\/strong> and South Texas<\/strong>, including the San Antonio<\/strong> area, can expect a 50% storm chance<\/strong> by late afternoon or evening.<\/p>\n While the day likely starts out mostly dry<\/strong>, stronger thunderstorms<\/strong> may develop later, posing threats of hail<\/strong> and heavy rainfall<\/strong>. This front will also cool things down<\/strong>, with highs falling into the upper 80s to low 90s (31\u201333\u00b0C)<\/strong> in South and Central Texas<\/strong>, and even upper 70s (25\u00b0C)<\/strong> in North Texas<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Stay aware of evolving forecasts, especially as we approach Sunday<\/strong> and Monday<\/strong>, when storm timing<\/strong> and intensity<\/strong> will become clearer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Friday: Heat intensifies across Central and South Texas The Memorial Day weekend begins on a hot and mostly dry note across Texas.
