FORECAST HIGHLIGHTS

  • STORMS SUNDAY MORNING: Showers and storms could linger until noon
  • COOL EASTER SUNDAY: Temperatures are trending cooler behind a front

FORECAST

Expect winds to stay gusty, especially during the nighttime hours. A cold front arrives Sunday morning. It’ll stir up storms Saturday night and cool us down for Easter Sunday.

DROUGHT WORSENS

Yes the main story is the rain chances, but the latest drought monitor shows how badly we need it. For Bexar county, not much of a difference. But areas just to the west of us, stretching all the way to the border has now been added to he exceptional drought.

SATURDAY STORMS

A storm system will be close enough by Saturday that isolated showers and storms will be possible during the day. It won’t be raining all day long, nor will everyone see rain, but we do need to keep an eye out for a strong storm or two, especially across the Hill Country. Otherwise, it’ll be mostly cloudy and warm.

It’s Saturday night when rain chances become more likely. Out ahead of a cold front, storms will become scattered across the area. Some severe weather will be possible, meaning anyone camping outdoors will want to stay updated. Storms will push east of the area by Sunday morning.

COOLER ON EASTER

Behind a cold front, which is set to arrive early on Sunday, a few lingering showers will be possible. It’ll also be breezy and cooler. In fact, some places could dip into the 50s during the first half of the day on Easter. Then, skies will clear and temperatures will warm. Still, it’s likely be much cooler than on Saturday.

ACTIVE NEXT WEEK

The forecast is still calling for isolated storms for the second half of next week. Because of the time of year, we’ll be on the lookout for strong storms. Stay tuned for more updates.
