FORECAST
Hope you’ve had a great weekend!
After a comfortable morning, dry air and abundant sunshine have once again allowed temperatures to soar into the 90s this afternoon, challenging records in San Antonio.
More records could be up for grabs over the next few days as we turn the calendar over to the month of October.
Starting with Monday, a pleasant morning in the mid-60s will lead in a hotter-than-average afternoon with plenty of sunshine and highs in the mid/upper 90s. Humidity will still be low along with winds out of the north-northeast at 3 to 10 mph.
Humidity generally stays low through much of this week, leading to more copy and paste conditions through at least Wednesday.
A slight uptick in moisture is expected ahead of next weekend, allowing slightly warmer mornings and added cloud cover to return to the forecast.
TROPICAL UPDATE
The National Hurricane Center continues to flag the western Caribbean and central Gulf of Mexico for potential tropical development over the next week, currently giving it a medium, 50% chance.
This currently does not look to be a major concern for South Central Texas, but with it still being early, we’ll keep tabs on any potential system and be sure to send out additional updates. Regardless – much of the Gulf Coast will still need to pay close attention over the next several days.
We’ll keep you posted. Until then — have a great week! ~ Mia
