FORECAST
And so it begins… Our infamous triple digit count meter makes a return today. The last three years have been brutal:
| YEAR | No. OF 100° DAYS |
|---|---|
| 2024 | 27 |
| 2023 | 75 |
| 2022 | 58 |
| 2021 | 3 |
TODAY
It’ll be a rapid warm-up, with 90s by 12pm and triple digits showing up by 3pm. Thankfully, it will be more a ‘dry heat’. The record high of 98° last set in 2009, likely goes down today.
HOTTEST DAY ON WEDNESDAY
Tomorrow likely brings the peak of this heat wave. Triple digits are a certainty, as it’ll be matter of how far above 100° we go. Some places west of San Antonio will highs near 110°. Records will be broken.
NOT-AS-HOT THIS WEEKEND
Temperatures will dip only slightly be the weekend. Humidity, however, increases which will make the “feels like” numbers higher. There is a very small, outside chance of a shower or storm in the Hill Country Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
