High pressure will remain in control on Thursday, keeping mostly sunny skies in place. It won’t be all sunshine, though, as smoke from nearby wildfires in Georgia drifts into the area, which could have negative impacts on air quality. An Air Quality Alert is in effect for the Lowcountry through Thursday evening as a result; people who have sensitivities to poor air quality should limit time outdoors. Temperatures will take another step up as southwesterly winds help pump in warmer air; expect lows in the mid-50s to warm to the mid-to-upper 80s in the afternoon.
High temperatures return to the 80s on Wednesday as high pressure begins to move out into the Atlantic. This is the continuation of a warming trend that will last into the weekend, which will feature temperatures returning to the mid-to-upper 80s ahead of a front that will bring the first decent chance of rain in a couple weeks.
High pressure remains in control for Tuesday (and for the next few days), yielding plenty of sunshine and comfortably warm temperatures. We start the day in the low 50s and will head to the mid-to-upper 70s in the afternoon away from the locally cooler coastline. Overall, it should be a nice day to get out and about if you are able.
Dry weather continues for the next few days, but we may start to see the pattern begin to flip this weekend to something a little wetter to close out April.
