Florals for spring? Groundbreaking.

That was a quick winter. After a couple of freezes, we are starting to feel that spring warmth and daily dose of sunshine.

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.

Probability for a warmer, drier spring

The NOAA forecasts equal chances of warmer + cooler temperatures this March, April, and May. During that time frame, researchers also predict lower precipitation than average.

As a refresher, here’s what the spring months typically look like in San Antonio:

March:

Average high temperatures: 72º-78°
Average rainfall: 1.9 inches

April:

Average high temperatures: 78º-84º
Average rainfall: 1.9 inches

May:

Average high temperatures: 84º-90º
Average rainfall: 3.3 inches
