As is typical for a winter in San Antonio, it’s been up and down the temperature rollercoaster for those of us around South Central Texas.
Another strong cold front will move through San Antonio this week, arriving Wednesday (1/19), cooling things down from near 80° into the 30s. After it gets chilly, an upper-level disturbance will bring a chance for a wintry mix Thursday (1/20).
With the memory of the February 2021 winter storm fresh in our minds, the prospect of an icy mix may seem a little daunting, but this week’s chance for winter weather will be very different from last year’s deep freeze. That being said, there could be some travel impacts to be on the lookout for Thursday.
