March cold front? 🥶Don't worry - it won't be too strong. However, it'll push temperatures back down into the 70s and 80s in the afternoons across the area! Along with chilly start, Saturday morning. Get out and enjoy this weekend! #txwx

The Southwestern US will be preheating the oven this week. Forecast highs will range from the 90s to the 100s into the weekend. Expect 80s and 90s for Texas! #txwx

Level 3 severe storm risk for our western counties, Tuesday night. Storms that develop in these highlighted regions will be capable of strong winds, hail, and with some tornadic winds. Not all storms will do this, but some cells may in the overnight hours. #txwx

LUNAR ECLIPSE TUESDAY MORNING 🌘 A reddish glow will appear on the moon, Tuesday morning as the Earth's shadow is casted onto its surface. Unfortunately, a good amount of cloud cover will be present across Texas. #txwx

GFS trending a little higher this time around 🌧️👀 From WED, MAR 4 through MON, MAR 9, we'll have occasional upper-level disturbances moving over Texas. This will hopefully setup a wet pattern heading into Mid-March and help with extreme drought. #txwx

MARCH DAYLIGHT 🌤️Days will continue to get longer and longer this month with some across Texas gaining an extra 50 minutes through the end of the month. Daylight Saving Time begins (spring forward) next Sunday, March 8th #txwx

February heat 🥵 The warmth continues this weekend with afternoon temperatures 15-20 degrees above normal! A few sprinkles will be possible Sunday morning as humidity and fog surges from the south. #txwx

FIRE DANGER 🔥A weak cold front will push through the area Saturday! Before the colder air sinks through Sunday morning, winds will pick up. Expect some gusts around 20-30 MPH elevating fire danger with drier air. #txwx

Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 18/02/2026
The "warm" weather continues! Will it get cooler? Yes. A weak cold front will sweep through this weekend increasing wind speeds Saturday afternoon. Temperatures will be closer to the winter "normal" into early next week. #txwx

Good beneficial rains for Valentine's Day! ☔Nearly half an inch over at San Antonio International. Skies stay sunny for the next few days with warm temperatures. #txwx

A storm system will sweep across the Southern US for Valentine's Day weekend! The heaviest rain will range from North Texas eastward into Tennessee through Sunday night. #txwx

I won't focus much on forecast rain totals, ice amounts, snow, etc. That'll come later this week. One things is certain - it'll be colder this weekend with a chance for wintry weather. More clouds, scattered cold rain with potential at freezing rain across Texas. #txwx

COLD MORNING 🥶🥶🥶 Some of the coldest air we've seen so far this winter! Worth a mention San Antonio Internrnational picked up 28°, but the current sensor is only saying 29°. Overnight lows dropped into the teens for several areas in the Hill Country and West Texas. #txwx

Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 17/01/2026
COLDEST AIR OF THE SEASON TONIGHT! We'll see low temperatures drop rapidly overnight falling into the 20s and 30s area wide. For some in the Hill Country, temperatures below freezing for about 8 hours. #txwx

Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 09/01/2026
COLDER TEMPERATURES 😨After days of spring-like warmth, winter will be returning! Mornings will be seasonably cold with afternoon highs closer to "normal" into next week. An overnight freeze looks likely for West Texas, Sunday morning. #txwx

Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 08/01/2026
FRIDAY NIGHT COLD 🌬 It's been warm lately! Warmer than normal for early winter unfortunately. Thankfully, a colder air mass will spill southward later this week driving through Texas Friday night. This weekend will be much cooler and breezy. Prepare! #txwx

Are you sneezing like crazy? 🤧So am I! The mountain cedar gets me every time in January. In fact, look how extreme counts have risen. Over 16,000 grains per cubic meter this weekend. Cedar usually peaks in late January. #txwx

Texas was cooking today 🔥 San Antonio along with other cities smashed daily record highs. The Alamo City also tied its warmest all-time January temperature. WUT. #txwx

Holiday Heat Wave 😡🔥As a ridge pushes over the Central US, temperatures will be far from their normal this time of year. Daytime highs running 20-30 degrees above average in some areas. Santa will be sweating - break out the shorts! #txwx

#Winter is here! Sunday, December 21st marks the day we see the least amount of sunlight with just over 10 hours in San Antonio. Less and less daylight the farther north you go in latitude. Welcome to winter! (even though it doesn't feel like it) #txwx

Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 20/12/2025
Christmas HEAT WAVE? 😭 Most days next week will be running nearly twenty degrees above the December average. I'm sorry in advance in you wanted a winter-like pattern for the holidays. #txwx

Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 20/12/2025
IMO, it'll be perfect this weekend. Make plans outside and enjoy the December weather! #txwx

Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 18/12/2025
Yes, tonight and tomorrow will be colder. It won't last long. Look at what happens Christmas week. A large heat wave strengthens across the United States! #txwx

Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 14/12/2025
9:35 AM - Frontal boundary continues to push through South Texas this morning. Cold air will drive southward today dropping temperatures into the afternoon. Enjoy this cold winter-like air because by mid-week, temperatures rebound FAST. #txwx

Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 13/12/2025
Texas can't decide what it wants. Cold air Sunday and Monday. Spring-like pattern returns by the end of next week! #txwx

Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 02/12/2025
The cold, cloudy and damp weather continues! A cold front will push through South Texas, Thursday morning. This will help create a overrunning pattern where rounds of light rain will push through the region Thursday and Friday. Highest rain totals will be east. #txwx
010
Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 01/12/2025
Rain chances are there, but they look slim. As a front drops through South Texas Thursday, the best opportunity for downpours will form south and east. The heaviest potential will be closer to Louisiana by the end of the week. #txwx

Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 29/11/2025
Severe weather risk east Texas, Saturday night. #txwx

Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 28/11/2025
A large storm system will push through the Plains and Midwest over the next couple of days! Big heads up for any post Thanksgiving travel plans. This 'may' produce a few delays across the Midwest with widespread wintry precipitation into the weekend. #txwx
000
Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 17/11/2025
Extremely warm and humid the next few days! Wednesday into Thursday, rain will start off light and scattered. Then, a broken line of storms will likely push through Texas early Thursday. Some spots across Texas may receive 1"-3" of rainfall. #txwx
000
Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 16/11/2025
Rain totals going up slightly for South Central Texas this week. 1" - 2" of rain possible Wednesday into Thursday. Locally higher amounts especially north. Isolated severe storms. Skies clear between Thursday night and Friday morning! #txwx

Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 14/11/2025
Alerts set for the middle of next week for a growing opportunity at scattered thunderstorms. Something to watch in the coming days as trends close in together! If this plays out, we could see a couple of inches of rainfall in some areas north of I-10. #txwx
020
Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 12/11/2025
Intensity and timing is difficult to predict. However, another strong solar burst of energy will arrive creating another opportunity to see the northern lights LOW on the horizon tonight! The line could be farther north or south depending on timing. #txwx

Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 11/11/2025
Fire danger gradually decreases this week as humidity returns. As a result, temperatures trend upward! We'll see above average warmth through the weekend with chances for widely scattered rain. Heaviest rain farther north closer to Dallas. #txwx

Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 10/11/2025
Temperatures remain COLD overnight! Expect most areas dropping into the 30s, Tuesday morning. A few areas farther north may briefly dip down to 32°. Veterans Day will be sunny and perfect with daytime highs in the 70s. #txwx

Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 06/11/2025
From record heat to fall temperatures - we have some big changes moving in this weekend. Record heat Friday and Saturday. A strong front will move through Texas, Saturday night. This will drop daytime temperatures below average early next week! #txwx

Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 05/11/2025
Another cold front is on the way! This frontal boundary will push through the state between Saturday night and Sunday morning. Winds will be gusting around 30 MPH, Sunday. Expect cold morning lows into early next week. #txwx

DARE I SAY...SWEATER WEATHER. #txwx

#Melissa made landfall in southwestern Jamaica today as a Category 5 hurricane. With winds at 185 MPH sustained, this ranks and ties with some of the strongest Atlantic hurricanes on record. Such as the Labor Day storm, Gilbert and Wilma. #tropics

Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 27/10/2025
Our strongest front of the season (so far) will be pushing into South Central Texas, Tuesday evening. We'll see daytime temperatures go from the 80s to the 70s. Expect lows much cooler in the 50s and some areas in the 40s! #txwx
020
Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 24/10/2025
The potential for strong thunderstorms arrives overnight! While a few leftover showers and storms will be around Saturday, rain coverage will trend down throughout the day. Around 1"-2" will be possible area wide. #txwx
000
Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 22/10/2025
Finally, a chance for thunderstorms! This next weather system will sweep through Texas Friday night and Saturday morning. This will produce scattered showers and storms into the early weekend. Top photo shows best case scenario, bottom photo shows a what's likely. #txwx

Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 21/10/2025
We're hoping. A weak front pushing through Texas Friday night will help generate a few showers and thundershowers in the area. Highest totals look to be east of I-35. Hopefully some good soakers overnight into the weekend! #txwx

Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 21/10/2025
#Melissa has strengthened into a tropical storm in the central Caribbean! While the American model (GFS) ejects this storm back out to sea quickly, the European takes a more westerly route closer to Cuba this weekend. Something to watch! #txwx

Ryan Shoptaugh @rshoptaugh.bsky.social · 18/10/2025
Although this won't be a strong burst of cold air, temperatures will be trending down Sunday and Monday! In fact, hi-res data is shooting for chilly temperatures, Monday morning. Prepare yourselves! #txwx

#Halloween is "usually" much cooler for San Antonio. Last year was the exception! Most Halloweens are much cooler especially in the overnights. Our forecast gradually cools down by the end of the month. #txwx
