(Copyright 2024 by KSAT &#8211; All rights reserved.)FORECAST HIGHLIGHTS<\/p>\n<p>FRIDAY: A lucky few will see a downpour<\/p>\n<p>STAYING HOT: Mid to upper 90s<\/p>\n<p>FIRE UPDATE: Three fires now burning west of SA <\/p>\n<p>FORECAST<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">We tied the record high temperature (98\u00b0) in San Antonio today, and it\u2019s not going to change much in the days ahead. Plan for afternoon highs between 96\u00b0 and 99\u00b0.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">A few brief showers bubbled up this afternoon, and tomorrow will be similar. While most of us will be dry, there\u2019s a slight chance a football game or two faces a rain\/lightning delay.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">UNRELENTING HEAT <\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">While the heat high will be suppressed for a day or so, any front or rain chance is likely staying north of our area. That means it\u2019ll stay hot and humid. We continue to wait for our first front of the season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">FIRE UPDATE<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">The massive wildfire that broke out near Sonora grew yesterday and is now nearly 9,000 acres, and ass of this evening, it\u2019s 50% contained. Another fire near Rocksprings also grew to 1,500 acres and is 50% contained. Fire conditions should improve tonight as humidity levels increase.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"\"  loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" role=\"presentation\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/23LDIQYI3RDEVFDHW43EZLJFK4.jpg\"\/>Fires gradually becoming more contained.
