Winds ramp up as front moves through, elevating concern of fire

Avoid outdoor burning and driving over tall grass.

SAN ANTONIO — Winds will ramp up in speed through the weekend as a cold front moves through Texas on Saturday.

This will elevate our fire concern given EXTREME drought that is currently widespread across South Central Texas.

Wind speeds will gust over 30 MPH at times from Friday to Sunday. Avoid outdoor burning and driving over tall grass.

LOW humidity and strong winds will create critical fire weather. Be safe!
