San Antonio is preparing for a significant heat wave, with temperatures expected to reach triple digits consistently next week.
According to KSAT meteorologists, the San Antonio International Airport has recorded only three 100°F (37.8°C) days this year, but other areas have experienced higher counts.

Impact & Risks

The upcoming heat wave poses risks for heat-related illnesses, especially for vulnerable populations such as the elderly, children, and outdoor workers. Prolonged exposure to high temperatures can lead to dehydration, heat exhaustion, or heat stroke. Residents are advised to limit outdoor activities during peak heat hours and stay hydrated. The dry conditions over the weekend may also increase fire risks in the region. While rain chances are minimal, coastal areas may see isolated showers today.
