About roof / ceiling leak in San Antonio

Local conditions note for ZIP 78201: ZIP 78201 sits in a corridor where brief heavy rain cells are common this season. Area context for San Antonio ZIP 78201: elevated coastal / storm-water exposure for this metro zip. Treat it as orientation, not a parcel map. Older or denser units in this ZIP often hide moisture in cavities — don't assume a dry surface means a dry wall. Tropical / coastal storm seasons can drive surge, heavy rain, and indoor water events.
