High atmospheric pressure holding fast in Texas and low-level air flow from the Gulf of Mexico will keep South Texas hot and muggy for a while.

Sunshine and heat, both in heavy doses, will be the theme Sunday and for the next few days, according to the National Weather Service ’s daily and extended forecasts. An upper-level ridge of high atmospheric pressure, which typically squeezes out any hopes of clouds forming, will continue building over Texas on Sunday, leading to rain-free and mostly clear skies, and higher temperatures.

Data show 100-degree days are happening more often over time In San Antonio, we can expect partly sunny skies that gradually becoming sunnier. Temperatures that start at 71 degrees or so just before dawn will soar to around 94 in the afternoon, forecasters said. Light south-southeast winds carrying moisture-laden air from the Gulf of Mexico means plenty of humidity with the heat.

You’re looking at the temperature wrong. Here’s why the heat index matters more We could see a few more clouds on an otherwise sunny Tuesday as the ridge of high atmospheric pressure starts to shift to the east. Humidity brought in by the south-southeast winds will make the daily high temperature of 97 feel more like 105 degrees. Wednesday will be similar to Tuesday: Expect mostly sunny skies and persistent south-southeast winds with gusts as strong as 20 mph.
