VERY COLD SATURDAY, ICE POSSIBLE
Behind the front, temperatures will hold in the 30s throughout the day on Saturday. Light precipitation remains possible. While it could drop to below freezing at the surface, a warm layer will sit above us in the atmosphere. This means that if we see any wintry precipitation, it’ll fall as freezing rain. How much precipitation and duration of wintry weather still remains a question. This will dictate what impacts we see in San Antonio. We’ll have a much better idea of these impacts by Thursday. More updates to come. Do note that San Antonio could see more than 24 hours below freezing.
