Cool, Clear Morning, Dry Weekend: The Forecast Lines Up for Muertos Fest and Tonight's River Parade
San Antonio starts Friday at 60.5 degrees under clear skies on the station's live feed, warming to near 83 with no rain expected — and the whole weekend stays dry before rain chances build late next week.
San Antonio starts Friday cool and clear — 60.5 degrees on the station's live weather feed early this morning — on the way to an afternoon high near 83. No rain is expected today, with precipitation chances at zero on the feed, making for an easy Friday for early voters and for the first night of Muertos Fest at Hemisfair, including tonight's 7 p.m. Day of the Dead River Parade downtown.
The weekend stays in the same dry pattern. Saturday reaches near 84 with a low near 61 and only a 2 percent chance of rain, and Sunday tops out near 82 with a low near 64 and a 1 percent chance — effectively dry both days for the festival crowds, the processions, and voters heading to Bexar County's early voting sites.
The dry stretch holds into next week: highs near 82 Monday, 79 Tuesday and 86 Wednesday, with rain chances staying low at 6, 13 and 11 percent. The first real change arrives Thursday, when the feed shows drizzle chances climbing to 32 percent and highs easing back near 79. The Weather Desk will update the forecast with the evening file at 17:00; the station's live weather panel refreshes every 10 minutes.
