In fact, recent weather model data shows that Easter Sunday is trending much drier than previously expected.

Here&#8217;s a close look at what you can expect.<\/p>\n<p>Easter Sunday forecast timeline<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Morning (5 to 10 a.m.): If you&#8217;re heading out early to go to a church service, it won;t be a bad idea to bring an umbrella along, just in case. A few isolated light showers are possible around South Texas, with about a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weather.gov\/ewx\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:30% chance of rain in San Antonio.;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;30% chance of rain in San Antonio.&quot;}\" class=\"link \">30% chance of rain in San Antonio.<\/a> Rainfall, if any, will stay very light.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">While rainfall isn&#8217;t guaranteed, temperatures will be rather chilly throughout the region. Expect morning lows to hover in the mid-50s, only rising a few degrees by 10 a.m.. Winds will also be quite breezy, blowing in from the north at around 15 to 20 mph with periodic gusts up to 30 mph possible,<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Shown are the expected temperatures (left) as well as wind gusts (right) across the region at 9 a.m. Easter Sunday.

While conditions still may be damp from Saturday&#8217;s rainfall, Easter egg hunts should go on without any major problems.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Temperatures will rise slightly, reaching the low 60s by noon before topping out in the upper 60s by late afternoon. This will likely go down as the coolest Easter Sunday in San Antonio since 2007.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Shown is the potential radar at noon Sunday, as light showers move across South Texas.

Winds will lighten, decreasing to less than 10 mph after 7\u00a0p.m. Temperatures will continue to sit in the 60s through much of the evening, only falling back into the 50s by 10 p.m.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">How much rain?

A few isolated showers are also possible, but rain chances are only expected to be near 20%.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Tuesday will bring similar weather as highs once again top out in the low 70s.
