Can a category 5 hurricane hit San Antonio Texas?

Answer 1

No. Hurricanes can only develop over warm water and weaken rapidly once they hit land. While a category 5 hurricane could potentially hit Texas, it is doubtful that it would even be at tropical storm strength by the time it reached San Antonio. Tornadoes are probably a greater threat to San Antonio than hurricanes.

Answer 2

It is highly unlikely for a category 5 hurricane to directly hit San Antonio, Texas. San Antonio is located inland and is far enough from the coast to reduce the likelihood of a category 5 hurricane's impact. However, it is still possible for the remnants of a hurricane, such as heavy rain and strong winds, to reach the area.
