We’ve seen temperatures and the humidity steadily rise over the last few days, with morning clouds, fog, and patchy drizzle. These clouds have been stubborn, sticking around the I-35 corridor until lunch, with sunshine in the afternoon.
Even with sunshine limited to the afternoon hours, we’ve still seen the thermometer rise to nearly 80° each afternoon — that’s some 15° above the average high this time of year.
With an official high of 77° in San Antonio, Christmas 2021 tied with Christmas 2005 for the 2nd warmest Christmas in the past 50 years!
