Central and southern Texas, including San Antonio, are bracing for another warm day on Sunday. With highs reaching the upper 80s to upper 90s, residents can expect partly to mostly cloudy skies, with the chance of isolated showers mainly over the coastal plains and Rio Grande areas.
The National Weather Service in Austin-San Antonio has also issued wind warnings for gusts that could affect travel and outdoor activities.
Sunday Weather Forecast for San Antonio and Surrounding Areas
Temperatures in San Antonio, Del Rio, and the southern Edwards Plateau will see highs ranging from 88°F to 98°F on Sunday. While most of the region will experience partly to mostly cloudy skies, isolated showers are expected to develop in the coastal plains and Rio Grande areas.
However, rain chances are low overall, with only a 10–20% chance of brief showers throughout the day. In addition, wind gusts from the south-southeast could reach up to 25 mph, which may impact outdoor activities and travel.
Wind and Outdoor Precautions
Winds in the region will remain moderate, with sustained winds around 10–15 mph. These gusty winds could make it feel hotter than it actually is and may cause some inconvenience outdoors. Residents should secure any outdoor items, like patio furniture or decorations, to avoid them being blown around by the winds.
With the ongoing heat, it’s also essential to stay hydrated and avoid strenuous activities during the peak heat hours of the day.
Forecast for Austin, San Marcos, and Eagle Pass
In Austin and San Marcos, the weather will be similarly warm, with highs climbing into the low to mid-90s. Further west in cities like Eagle Pass and Carrizo Springs, temperatures are expected to soar to around 97°F to 99°F, making it feel hotter in those areas.
Coastal regions, including Cuero and Victoria, have slightly higher chances of rain during the afternoon, but the rain will likely remain light and scattered.
Looking Ahead: A Warm Week Ahead
The hot weather is expected to continue into the workweek, with temperatures remaining near seasonal norms. Monday will bring mostly sunny skies and highs near 95°F, with only a slight chance of rain (10–15%).
Tuesday and Wednesday will be similarly hot, with highs in the mid-90s and the possibility of spotty afternoon showers. By Thursday, temperatures will hover around 94°F, with rain chances dropping to a low 5–10%.
Overall, the weather in San Antonio and surrounding areas will remain warm and breezy throughout the weekend and into the beginning of the week.
While rain chances are low, isolated showers and gusty winds may provide some brief relief. It’s crucial to stay safe by staying hydrated, limiting outdoor activities during the hottest parts of the day, and taking precautions with the wind.
