SAN ANTONIO — IMPACT DAYS: Tuesday, June 10 through Thursday, June 12
Reason: Possibility of heavy rain and localized flooding in the San Antonio region, including severe thunderstorms with quarter-sized hail and strong winds.
The breakdown
Two weeks after San Antonio’s wettest stretch of the year, storm clouds could gather and let loose over the region once again.
The stage is set for multiple rounds of showers and storms to sweep through South Texas through Thursday, bringing potentially damaging wind gusts and hail to the area, according to the National Weather Service. An isolated tornado can’t be ruled out in the Del Rio area.
The NWS has placed San Antonio and most of the Hill Country in a Level 1 out of 5 risk, the least-serious category for severe weather, for Tuesday night heading into Wednesday morning.
Communities further west in Uvalde, Zavala, Dimmit, Maverick, Real, Edwards, Kinney and Val Verde counties are in a Level 2 risk area. That region of the state is under a Severe Thunderstorm Watch until 2 a.m. Wednesday.
Parts of the region could see up to 3 inches of rain before it’s all said and done.
