We’ll get off to another rather chilly start on Tuesday, with sheltered and rural locations headed below freezing and the metro getting awfully close (if not tipping below 32°F, too). At least the wind won’t be a factor — maybe a very light breeze, but that’s about it. Temperatures will then warm to around 60° in the afternoon, which if realized would be right on the nose for what climatology considers “normal” for January 13. Expect plenty of sunshine with just a few clouds.
This week will have a much different (and more seasonally-appropriate) feel than last week did as multiple shots of cold air are queued up for our neck of the woods.
After a record high on Friday, we’ve got one more warm day ahead before a cold front begins to make things feel a little more like January for Sunday and especially the start of the new work week.
Another round of fog is expected overnight into Friday morning as abnormally warm temperatures continue across the Lowcountry. Lows will fall into the mid-50s, reaching the dewpoint with relatively calm winds. Once again, be prepared for low visibility and delays due to fog as you commute Friday morning. Like Thursday, the fog should mix out by mid-morning, and from there, temperatures will head to the mid-to-upper 70s. We’ll challenge the record high of 78° set in 2012 with a mix of sun and clouds in the afternoon.
