Welcome, South Texans! We all know that the summer months can bring intense heat and humidity to our region. Fortunately, this summer is not as scorching as the record-breaking 2023 season. But when can we expect the first fall cold front to sweep into San Antonio?
While the latter half of August still promises warm temperatures, knowing the end is in sight can help us soldier on. Here are some key dates to mark on your calendar:
-
Fall begins with the autumnal equinox at 7:44 a.m. on Sunday, Sept. 22 -
The average first cold front for San Antonio usually arrives in late September -
San Antonio’s average first freeze typically occurs at the end of November
As meteorologists, we strive for accuracy, so here are a couple of disclaimers:
-
The arrival of autumn, while significant astronomically, does not guarantee cooler temperatures -
The first average cold front usually hits in late September, based on historical data -
The first freeze date varies widely, but historically, the end of November is a common timeframe for San Antonio
