San Antonio is about to experience a weather rollercoaster over the next few days. After a stretch of unseasonably warm temperatures, with highs soaring into the mid-to-upper 80s, a major shift is on the horizon. A cold front early next week will bring showers, gusty winds, and a noticeable drop in temperatures. If you love the warmth, enjoy it while it lasts—change is coming fast.
A Summer-Like Weekend in February
The next few days will feel more like May than early February.
Friday continues the trend, with high humidity and temperatures peaking around 83°F (29°C). Expect a mix of clouds and sunshine throughout the day, making it feel even warmer. Overnight, temperatures will remain in the upper 60s, meaning no real relief from the heat.
Saturday will be the hottest day of the stretch, with a high soaring to 88°F (31°C). If you’re planning to be outside, prepare for summer-like conditions. This will be one of the warmest February days San Antonio has seen in years. The night will stay warm, with temperatures only dipping to 67°F (20°C).
Big Changes Arrive Sunday
If you’ve been enjoying the warmth, don’t get too comfortable. A strong cold front will push in on Sunday, bringing cooler air, gusty winds, and even a few showers.
The morning will start off warm, but clouds will increase as the day goes on. Highs will still reach a comfortable 84°F (29°C), but by nighttime, temperatures will drop sharply into the upper 50s (14°C). The wind will pick up, making it feel even cooler, especially after days of summer-like heat.
Next Week: Rain and Cooler Temperatures Take Over
By Monday, the temperature drop will be in full effect. Expect cloudy skies, scattered showers, and a much cooler high of just 69°F (20°C). The humid, sticky air of the weekend will be replaced by a fresher, breezy feel.
Tuesday will bring morning showers and another cool day, with highs around 72°F (22°C) before dropping into the mid-50s at night. By Wednesday, temperatures will struggle to reach the upper 60s, with overnight lows dipping into the mid-40s.
How to Prepare for This Weather Swing
- Stay Hydrated – The weekend heat will feel more like summer, so drink plenty of water if you’re spending time outdoors.
- Watch for Changing Conditions – A big shift in temperatures can lead to stronger winds and brief showers, so keep an eye on weather updates.
- Prepare for Rain on Monday – If you commute or have outdoor plans, expect wet conditions and cooler temperatures.
- Enjoy the Warmth While You Can – This may be one of the last big warm spells before a cooler pattern settles in.
Final Thoughts
San Antonio is in for a wild weather ride this weekend. The city will sizzle under near-record highs before a cold front arrives, bringing relief from the heat along with showers and a temperature drop. If you love warm weather, soak it in now—because by next week, it’ll feel much more like February again.
