SMALL SHOT AT RAIN FRIDAY

On Friday, a small disturbance is expected to move north along the Rio Grande. While this could potentially stir up a shower or two, San Antonio’s rain chances remain low, staying below 20%. So, keep your umbrellas handy just in case, but don’t count on a downpour!

ACTIVE ATLANTIC

Meanwhile, while Texas may be experiencing a dry spell, the Atlantic is buzzing with activity! Two disturbances have been reported, with one showing potential to develop into a tropical depression soon. This system is forecast to move westward, possibly reaching the Windward Islands by the weekend. Stay tuned for updates as the situation develops!

In the northern Atlantic, Tropical Storm Cristobal has formed, but don’t worry—this storm is over open waters and is not expected to impact any land before it dissipates by midday Thursday.
