National Weather Service

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration houses key groups like the National Weather Service. Experts warn the consequences of employee cuts could be drastic.

Last week’s storm resulted in winds that got up to 100 mph, and was classified a derecho.

The National Weather Service reported on Wednesday that it still expected cloudy conditions during the solar eclipse on Monday, April 8. It forecasted a 30% chance of showers and thunderstorms, with a high near 83.

Joint Base San Antonio reported a very weak tornado briefly touched down at Fort Sam Houston around 8 a.m. Thursday.

Radar and other data indicated that the meteoroid broke apart in the atmosphere, and some fragments reached the ground.

A cold front will trigger showers in the area.

A fast-moving cold front is expected to collide with the remnants of Hurricane Roslyn over South Texas and the Hill Country late Monday afternoon and evening.

The National Weather Service reports there is a good chance of on-again, off-again showers through Wednesday as another cold front pushes into the area from the west.

After nearly a decade, the director of the National Weather Service has stepped down. Getting the public to understand weather is just as important as the science that delivers the forecasts, he says.

Santa Claus may arrive in San Antonio wearing a red guayabera and black chanclas due to the very warm weather expected this Christmas weekend.
