Fire Weather Planning Forecast for South Central Texas
National Weather Service Austin/San Antonio TX
128 PM CDT Thu Sep 17 2026

.DISCUSSION...

Low to medium rain chances leading to isolated wetting rains will
mainly be over the coastal plains and I-35 corridor today.
East to southeast winds are expected today, but a more southerly
wind direction will resume in the following days. Minimum
relative humidity in the 30s in combination of 10 mph winds could
create difficulties in wildfire control. The extra coverage in
showers and thunderstorms will likely also produce more outflow
winds that could gust over 20 mph.
