Happy weekend!
KEY POINTS:
-
Hot, near 100° for Father’s Day Weekend
-
Gulf moisture will bring tropical downpours Wednesday & Thursday
-
Highest rainfall totals near the coast
FORECAST DETAILS:
It’ll be hot and humid this weekend with mostly sunny skies and a high near 100° both today and tomorrow. In the afternoons, a stray shower is possible at only 10%.
Much better rain chances next week as we monitor an area in the Gulf of Mexico. It may develop into a tropical depression or weak tropical storm, but regardless of development, it will sling tropical moisture across the Texas Coast Wednesday and Thursday. San Antonio will receive times of tropical downpours as a result. Rain chances peak Wednesday & Thursday at 40-60%.
Highest rainfall totals will be along the Texas Coast where up to 4-6 inches of rain will be possible. There will be a sharp drop-off in rainfall totals farther inland, with San Antonio rainfall potential closer to 1 inch. In the Hill Country, even less.
Still, the added rain chances and cloud cover mean that temperatures will be mild in the week ahead with highs in the 80s Wednesday through Friday.
Please continue to check back in with us as the core location of tropical moisture will greatly affect our rainfall totals in San Antonio. Farther south? Less rain. More north? More rain for us! Either is possible, and we will keep you posted!
