Heavy Rainfall and Storms Set to Hit San Antonio Area Tonight

UPDATE: Severe storms and heavy rainfall are forecast to impact the San Antonio area late tonight, with authorities warning of potential flooding. As of now, the National Weather Service has confirmed that storms will develop primarily west of San Antonio after 5 PM CDT today, October 25, 2023.

Residents should prepare for intense weather conditions as storms are predicted to train over the same regions, particularly affecting the Rio Grande and Hill Country. Reports indicate that rainfall amounts could reach between 0.50 inches to 2.00 inches, with isolated areas possibly seeing up to 3.00 inches.

The forecast highlights a quiet but warm Wednesday, with temperatures climbing into the mid-80s during the day. However, as night falls, storm activity will intensify. Alongside heavy rain, there are concerns about isolated severe weather, including hail and gusty winds.

On Thursday, October 26, 2023, showers and storms will spread eastward across the area. While the storms may be less severe, residents are advised to be cautious as isolated street flooding remains a possibility.

Looking ahead, Friday, October 27, 2023, will see early rain tapering off, giving way to clearing skies throughout the day. However, another storm system is projected to arrive late in the weekend, potentially bringing more rain and storms.

Residents are urged to stay informed through trusted local meteorologists and utilize resources like the KSAT Weather Authority App for real-time updates.
