San Antonio will see a dramatic shift from the lingering clouds of Friday night to a blistering, sun‑filled Sunday. Temperatures are forecast to climb into the mid‑to‑upper 90s, with some neighborhoods approaching the 100‑degree mark. The heat comes with a high‑pressure ridge that will keep the sky clear and limit any chance of rain.

Power Outages and Heat Safety

For the few households still without electricity after Friday’s thunderstorms, the rising temperature adds an extra layer of concern. Residents are urged to stay well‑hydrated, limit outdoor activity during peak heat hours, and locate a cool place—such as a community center, library, or a neighbor’s air‑conditioned home—if needed. Local officials continue to monitor the situation and will provide updates on restoration efforts.

Rain Chances Remain Low

A weak disturbance moving inland from the Gulf may generate isolated showers or brief thunderstorms across the Coastal Plains on Tuesday and Wednesday. However, the bulk of that moisture is expected to stay near the coast, offering only minimal relief to the inland heat. Any showers that do develop are likely to be short‑lived and will not produce significant rainfall.

Extended Outlook

Looking ahead, the hot and mostly dry pattern is set to persist through much of the coming week. Daily highs will generally remain in the 90s, keeping the need for heat‑related precautions high. By the following weekend, the dominant ridge of high pressure could begin to weaken, potentially allowing a more active weather pattern to emerge as winds shift northward. Residents should stay tuned for future forecasts that may bring cooler temperatures and a chance for rain.

Practical Tips for Residents

• Drink plenty of water—aim for at least eight glasses a day, more if you’re active outdoors.
• Check on elderly neighbors and those with medical conditions who may be vulnerable to heat.
• Use fans or air‑conditioning when possible; if you lack power, consider public cooling centers.
• Limit strenuous activities during the hottest part of the day, typically between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m.
• Keep blinds or curtains closed to reduce indoor heat gain.

The National Weather Service will continue to issue updates, and local authorities remain ready to assist anyone affected by power outages or extreme heat. Stay informed, stay safe, and enjoy the sunshine responsibly.
