SAN ANTONIO — A tornado and severe weather caused damage in northwest San Antonio on Wednesday, July 15, 2026. The storm affected multiple neighborhoods and prompted coordinated response efforts from city agencies and relief organizations.
The storm impacted areas near the University of Texas at San Antonio, the Rim, Camp Bullis, Crown Ridge and the Dominion. No injuries have been reported. “The most significant structural damage occurred at the Oasis Apartments, 6023 UTSA Blvd., where a large section of the roof was torn from the building and three fourth-floor units were affected,” San Antonio city officials said.
The American Red Cross is available to assist displaced residents with immediate needs. Residents can call 1-800-RED-CROSS (1-800-733-2767) for assistance. The city also encouraged residents to report property damage by submitting a self-assessment survey through the Individual State of Texas Assessment Tool. Reporting damage is voluntary, does not replace filing an insurance claim, and does not guarantee disaster relief.
City staff removed 34 trees on Wednesday, July 15, 2026, as part of a broader effort that has totaled 57 tree removals following storms this week. The city will provide debris collection service to residents in storm-affected areas. Debris should be placed at the curb, clear of vehicles and other obstructions. Residents needing help with debris, downed trees, or property damage assessment should call 311.
As of 4 p.m. on Wednesday, July 15, 2026, twenty low-water crossings were barricaded due to flooding concerns. Crews are monitoring low-water crossing conditions overnight. Residents were also given safety instructions regarding utilities: downed power lines should be reported to CPS Energy at 210-353-HELP (4357), and anyone who smells gas should immediately move to a safe location, call 911, and contact CPS Energy at the same number.
