San Antonio and Hurricanes: A Tale of Two Cities (That Aren't Really Two Cities)
Ah, San Antonio. Riverwalk strolls, sizzling breakfast tacos, and... hurricanes? Hold on a sec, didn't someone mess up the weather report?
Relax, fellow Alamo City dwellers! While San Antonio might be on a first-name basis with scorching summers and the occasional epic downpour, full-fledged hurricanes are about as likely as spotting a Yeti two-stepping on the Riverwalk.

Why the Big Easy Breather?
The key here, folks, is geography. San Antonio is a proud inland city, chilling roughly 140 miles away from the Gulf Coast. That means hurricanes, those blustery beach bums, gotta weaken considerably by the time they reach our neck of the woods. They usually fizzle out into tropical storms, bringing some much-needed rain (hey, even cacti need a drink!), but that's about it.
Of course, there's always a "but," isn't there? Hurricanes are like toddlers throwing tantrums – sometimes unpredictable. A couple, like Hurricane Beulah in 1967, surprised everyone with unexpected floods. But those are rare occurrences, more like the occasional rogue mariachi band serenading you at 3 am.
Tip: Focus on one point at a time.
The bottom line: San Antonio can sleep soundly (or salsa all night long) without worrying about hurricane-force winds ripping off their sombreros.
