Good morning, San Antonio. Here’s what you need to know today. 

Your Weather Planner

The dry and sunny weather continues today with high temperatures in the 90s, well above normal for this time of year. It’s been quite some time since we’ve seen rain across the state, so burn bans and elevated fire danger will continue today. A weak cold front will advance towards Texas late week and into the weekend, bringing cooler temperatures to North Texas by Sunday. We’ll also have a chance of showers and storms Saturday along the front. Central and South-Central Texas may only feel a slight cool down Sunday before temperatures ramp back up to the 90s next week.
