Strong storms possible around San Antonio, Texas Hill Country Wednesday afternoon/evening ⛈

It’s that time of year. We are now in the heart of severe weather season and the pattern Wednesday, May 1, lends itself to a threat of at least a few strong storms. Here’s what to look for:

  • Ripples of energy in the upper part of the atmosphere will pass overhead Wednesday, producing scattered storms.
  • The highest odds for severe storms are Wednesday afternoon and Wednesday night.
