San Antonio Drenched: Weekend Rain to Soak Alamo City
8 Nov
Summary
- San Antonio expects several inches of rain from Saturday to Monday.
- Sunday is forecast to be the wettest day of the weekend.
- Low flooding risk due to slow, steady rainfall accumulation.
San Antonio and the surrounding South Central Texas region are preparing for a significant rainfall event beginning Saturday, November 7, and continuing through Monday. Forecasters predict that between 1 to 3 inches of rain could fall by Monday evening, with isolated areas potentially receiving up to 5 inches if rain concentrates. The National Weather Service anticipates that Sunday will be the wettest day.
Fortunately, the precipitation is expected to be steady rather than intense, which generally lowers the risk of widespread flooding. However, short periods of heavier rain could still cause localized issues on streets and in low-lying areas, particularly west of I-35.
This rain will also bring a notable drop in temperature, with daytime highs hovering in the 60s throughout the weekend. Monday may feel even cooler, with some areas experiencing temperatures in the 50s. Rain is expected to conclude by Monday evening, leading to drier conditions on Tuesday with temperatures approaching 70 degrees.
