Life update‼️

Here's how I see this weekend's weather - Sun: aggressive Heat: disrespectful Moisture: nearly missing Outdoor burning: absolutely not, don't do it #txwx

Here are the names for the 2026 Atlantic hurricane season! You may recognize a few. These rotate on a list every 6 years. NOAA issued a 'El Niño Watch' this week and means a few things! This setup typically creates a slower season. More wind shear, less storms overall. #txwx

Spring technically begins this week...and it's bringing an early taste of summer. Expect daytime temperatures in the 90s for most cities across the state including San Antonio. Stay hydrated!! #txwx

The Southwestern US will be preheating the oven this week. Forecast highs will range from the 90s to the 100s into the weekend. Expect 80s and 90s for Texas! #txwx

Spring starts on Friday! Temperatures will be warm for sometime as we wrap up March soon. #txwx

WHAT 🤯 Sunday afternoon hit a record-breaking 98°. By this morning, temperatures had dropped to 42° — a 56° swing in less than 24 hours! The all-time record in SA is 57°, set back in 1990. We came within just one degree of tying that record! #txwx

RECORD HEAT AT 98° IN SA 🥵 Big changes overnight. From summer heat to winter morning cold, expect lows to fall into the 30s and 40s area wide, Monday morning. We'll see temperatures quickly recover this week. #txwx

Sunday afternoon will be near record HOT. Good news. After the record warmth in the 90s, a strong cold front will push through during the evening. This will drive in cold temperatures for Monday. #txwx

The Tale of Two Seasons 🥶Come Sunday afternoon, a dry line will push across Central Texas boosting temperatures into the 90s! Then, Sunday night, a cold front will push through! This will drop wind chills into the 30s and 40s early Monday and for a few overnights. #txwx

From chilly mornings to WARM afternoons. As a dry boundary pushes across Texas on Sunday, this will boost temperatures up likely into the 90s. Get ready for the heat! #txwx

While some rain pushed across San Antonio, the heaviest 24 totals were across our western counties. Some dropping large hail stones and tornadic winds where a tornado was confirmed in Kinney County, Tuesday evening. #txwx

Earlier this evening, radar detected a hail core producing 3”-4” diameter size hail. Around softball size near Leakey, TX. Here’s some confirmation. Intense thunderstorms, Tuesday night in our western counties. ⛈️⬇️ 📸: Lina - Leakey, TX

4:55 PM - A severe thunderstorm is moving over Del Rio this evening with hail around golf ball size. This warning expires at 5:30 PM. #txwx

A Tornado Watch is in effect tonight for some strong to severe thunderstorms. Mostly for western counties. Storms out west be capable of strong winds, isolated tornadoes, and hail if they strengthen. Storms will gradually weaken on approach to I-35. #txwx

Storms that develop across West Texas and the Rio Grande will be capable of strong winds, large hail, and isolated tornadoes overnight. The severe threat will diminish as storms push eastward closer to I-35, Wednesday morning. #txwx

Level 3 severe storm risk for our western counties, Tuesday night. Storms that develop in these highlighted regions will be capable of strong winds, hail, and with some tornadic winds. Not all storms will do this, but some cells may in the overnight hours. #txwx

After a productive weekend full of rain, we have ONE more round this week. Between Tuesday and Wednesday morning, a piece of upper-energy will sweep across Texas. This will generate a few strong to severe storms into pre-dawn Wednesday. #txwx

Some isolated rain tomorrow. Better chance for another round of storms arrives Wednesday! Some severe potential will be present mid-week as one last wave of energy moves across Texas as this large scale storm system pushes OUT of the South. #txwx

10:55 AM - Numerous showers and thunderstorms are moving across South Texas. Some producing lightning, small hail and strong winds, The most severe threat remains south of HWY 90. #txwx

4:40 PM - Can you spot the cold front pushing through South Central Texas? Cooler air, gusty winds, and scattered rain will make for a chilly evening as temperatures continue to fall overnight. #txwx
