FIRE DANGER/BLOWING DUST: Tonight and Saturday
FORECAST
STATEWIDE FIRE CONCERNS
While it will be windy here, powerful winds, with gusts of up to 70 mph are possible in the Panhandle. This, coupled with low humidity, will create a historic fire danger for northwest Texas. Additionally, blowing dust will reduce visibility for much of West Texas. Some of that dust could wind up in San Antonio by tonight and into tomorrow.
STRONGER WINDS SATURDAY
Winds will likely be stronger on Saturday, with some gusts close to 40 mph in San Antonio. In this case, winds will be more northwesterly. The air will be extremely dry, presenting a high fire danger yet again on Saturday. The only thing working in our favor is that temperatures will be cooler, with highs in the upper-70s tomorrow.
LESS WIND, COMFORTABLE SUNDAY
Winds will subside by Sunday. Temperatures will reach to near 80, making for a beautiful day. Skies are forecast to be mostly sunny.
