FORECAST HIGHLIGHTS:
- STORMS TONIGHT: A few storms, some strong, possible east of I-35 from 8 p.m. - 2 a.m.

- THURSDAY: Another hit-or-miss rain chance

CHRISTMAS EVE:
After a relatively gray and humid day in San Antonio, a storm chance returns to the forecast tonight as a weak front moves through.
Best chance for storms resides in areas along and east of the I-35 corridor between 8 p.m. and 2 a.m. A few storms could become strong-to-severe, with strong winds, hail, lightning, and heavy rainfall the main concerns to monitor.
Keep your KSAT Weather Authority App handy this evening, especially if you’re traveling or heading to midnight services!
CHRISTMAS DAY:
Any rain moves out by sunrise Christmas Morning as slightly drier air pumps in. Expect a quieter and dry day, with highs near 70° and more afternoon sunshine.
LOOKING AHEAD:
Another surge of humidity quickly returns by Thursday, leading to some areas of patchy morning fog and drizzle. As a disturbance pushes across the state, spotty showers and a few storms will then be possible, mainly through the early afternoon.
After that, rain chances are pretty much out of the forecast for the remainder of the year as high temperatures climb into the unseasonably warm upper-70s to round out 2024.
More updates to come! And don’t worry - we’re keeping Santa informed on the storm chance tonight!
