A much-needed break from heavy rain in San Antonio<\/strong><\/p>\n After a long and dry period from December 2024 through April 2025<\/strong>, when San Antonio<\/strong> recorded just 6.18 inches (157 mm)<\/strong> of rain, the skies finally opened up. Between Wednesday evening and Thursday morning<\/strong>, an astonishing 6.37 inches (162 mm)<\/strong> of rain fell at San Antonio International Airport<\/strong>, eclipsing the previous five-month total in less than 12 hours. This sudden deluge<\/strong> triggered widespread flash flooding<\/strong> across Bexar County<\/strong>, causing significant disruptions.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Friday: A shift toward drier but hotter conditions<\/strong><\/p>\n The weather is now stabilizing<\/strong>, and the San Antonio metro area<\/strong> is expected to dry out<\/strong> going into the weekend. On Friday morning<\/strong>, temperatures<\/strong> will begin in the mid-70s \u00b0F (around 24 \u00b0C)<\/strong> under cloudy skies<\/strong>. As clouds slowly clear through the day, daytime highs<\/strong> will climb to around 90 \u00b0F (32 \u00b0C)<\/strong> by late afternoon.<\/p>\n However, due to residual moisture<\/strong> in the soil and air, humidity levels<\/strong> will surge, pushing heat index values<\/strong> between 102 \u00b0F and 107 \u00b0F (39 \u00b0C to 42 \u00b0C)<\/strong> across Central and South Texas<\/strong>. Although actual temperatures<\/strong> may seem moderate, feels-like conditions<\/strong> will be oppressive.<\/p>\n There is still a slight 20% chance<\/strong> for pop-up showers or thunderstorms<\/strong>, particularly in the afternoon and evening<\/strong>, but any rainfall is expected to be isolated<\/strong>. Heavier showers<\/strong> remain more likely east of San Antonio<\/strong>, in places like Victoria<\/strong>, Houston<\/strong>, and College Station<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Saturday and Sunday: Dry skies dominate across South Texas<\/strong><\/p>\n The weekend will bring a strengthening ridge of high pressure<\/strong> over West Texas<\/strong> and New Mexico<\/strong>, ushering in stable weather<\/strong> for most of Central and South Texas<\/strong>. Expect morning lows<\/strong> in the mid to upper 70s \u00b0F (24\u201326 \u00b0C)<\/strong> and afternoon highs<\/strong> near 92 \u00b0F (33 \u00b0C)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Humidity<\/strong>, however, will remain high<\/strong>, keeping heat index values<\/strong> around 105 \u00b0F (40 \u00b0C)<\/strong> both days. While most of the region will stay dry<\/strong>, southeasterly winds<\/strong> from the Gulf of Mexico<\/strong> could trigger a few isolated storms<\/strong> in the afternoons. Still, the rain chances<\/strong> remain low\u2014between 10% and 20%<\/strong>, meaning most areas won\u2019t see another drop<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Looking ahead: The start of next week remains dry and hot<\/strong><\/p>\n From Monday through Wednesday<\/strong>, dry weather<\/strong> is expected to continue with afternoon highs<\/strong> rising into the mid to upper 90s \u00b0F (35\u201337 \u00b0C)<\/strong>. Morning temperatures<\/strong> will hover in the mid to upper 70s \u00b0F (24\u201326 \u00b0C)<\/strong>. While a few scattered showers<\/strong> cannot be ruled out, there\u2019s no indication of widespread rain or flooding<\/strong> returning anytime soon.<\/p>\n South Texas<\/strong> residents can now look forward<\/strong> to a quiet weekend<\/strong>, with plenty of heat<\/strong> but only a small risk of storms<\/strong>\u2014a dramatic shift from the recent flood emergency<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A much-needed break from heavy rain in San Antonio After a long and dry period from December 2024 through April 2025, when San Antonio recorded just 6.18 inches (157 mm) of rain, the skies finally opened up.
