We know the question on your mind, San Antonians — when’s it going to get cold? It may be a little bit chilly now, but let’s take a look what winter may have in store for us.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) recently released its newest seasonal climate outlook — here’s what the next three months may look like in the Alamo City.

Reminder: The first day of winter is on Thursday, Dec. 21.

Precipitation

Expect more precipitation. San Antonio has a 33-40% chance of seeing higher than normal average snow and rainfall amounts this winter.

Drought

The much-needed rain may help combat the drought still plaguing Central Texas. As of most recent data, most of Bexar County is under Stage 2 water restrictions. NOAA predicts the drought will remain, but improve, by the end of February.
