When will hail threaten San Antonio Saturday? Here’s a timeline A significant weather shift is expected to impact San Antonio as a cold front moves into the region on Saturday, bringing the potential for thunderstorms and large hail. The National Weather Service has issued a level 2 out of 5 risk for severe weather, indicating that a few thunderstorms could produce damaging winds and hail. The forecast highlights a timeline of conditions that residents should monitor closely. The day begins with a cloudy, mild, and muggy morning, with temperatures near 70 degrees Fahrenheit. Isolated drizzle may occur, but significant rainfall is not anticipated. By midday, the cold front will begin to push through the Hill Country, bringing scattered showers and thunderstorms to areas like Fredericksburg, Kerrville, and Johnson City. San Antonio temperatures are projected to rise to near 80 degrees during this period. The most critical weather activity is expected in the late afternoon and evening. As the cold front intensifies, the likelihood of strong to severe storms increases, with large hail and damaging wind gusts possible. However, the storms are predicted to be scattered, meaning that rainfall will come in short bursts rather than continuous downpours. Long stretches of dry weather will be interspersed with these intense but brief precipitation events. As the night progresses, atmospheric moisture will continue to move into the region, maintaining scattered showers and storms. The severe weather threat will diminish as a cooler, more stable air mass moves in behind the cold front. By Sunday, scattered showers and weaker thunderstorms are expected to persist, with a 50-60% chance of rain in San Antonio.#national_weather_service #san_antonio #fredericksburg #kerrville #johnson_city
