Thursday will be another warm day across the Lowcountry. We’ll start the day with mid-50s and some patches of fog. Heading into the afternoon, highs will top out in the mid-to-upper 70s once again despite more cloud cover than we saw on Wednesday. South winds will be a touch on the breezy side as well. We should get the day in rain-free across much of the area. There’s a small chance that a shower or two could brush the coast in the afternoon, but the bulk of the rain stays away until overnight Thursday into Friday.
No major weather concerns to write home about for Tuesday. There may be some patches of fog in the morning, but nothing too heinous or concerning (though if you do run into fog, make sure you’re using your low beams and keeping some extra following distance). Otherwise, temperatures around 40° will rise into the upper 60s to around 70° in the afternoon under partly cloudy skies, making for a nice day across the Lowcountry.
Expect to wake up to some showers in the area on Sunday as a coastal trough sharpens and moves ashore. Temperatures will run warmer in the morning thanks to increasing cloud cover, with lows bottoming out in the low 40s (as opposed to the low 30s this morning). High temperatures will approach 60°, several degrees warmer than we felt today (Downtown didn’t even make it into the 50s!). Shower chances look to peak by midday before tapering off later in the day. We’ll close the day with quieter weather and maybe a few peeks of sun before it’s all said and done. About a quarter-inch of rain is expected — nothing terribly out of bounds once again, and still quite useful given ongoing dryness.
After a record high downtown (77°, breaking the record of 76° set in 1916 and tied in 1950) and just falling short at the airport (81°), temperatures are turning significantly cooler across the area as a wedge front sinks southward tonight. This will result in mostly cloudy conditions for Thursday, with highs running almost 20° below where they did today. Expect some showers to creep back into the area later in the day, with better rain chances settling in overnight into Friday. (Let’s just hope we don’t get caught in a temporal loop on this Groundhog Day.)
We’ve got more gray weather in store for a good bit of Tuesday, but there may be a little reprieve later in the day before showers return to the picture around sunset. We’ll start the day with fog across the area, which may turn a bit dense at times. A shower or two can’t be totally discounted, either. Be ready for some delays on the morning commute as a result.
We will get a break from the rain and fog around midday. There’s a chance we could see some peeks of sun in the afternoon, which would be welcomed. This could help drive temperatures into the upper 60s within a rather humid airmass. Scattered showers may break back out, particularly after sunset.
Bottom line: Keep the rain gear nearby, though you shouldn’t need it as much as you did on Monday.
We’re not looking at a total washout for much of the day, but expect showers to develop later in the day on Sunday as a warm front pushes ashore along with some mid-level energy rippling about. Before rain sets in, temperatures should top out around 70°, making for perhaps some short sleeves weather for a time. Shower chances increase around sunset, peak overnight, and will linger into Monday morning. This could be another decent soaking for us, especially given moderate drought conditions across a good bit of the Tri-County area — expect storm totals between .5-1.5″ across a good chunk of the area with locally higher amounts possible. The good news is that no flooding issues are anticipated, and there’s no severe weather risk, either.
We are back into cooler weather on Thursday in the wake of a cold front which will sweep through the area overnight. We’ll start the day in the mid-40s with a bit of a westerly breeze that’ll stay persistent throughout the day. Clouds will be few and far between, but the ongoing influx of cold air will keep highs pinned into the upper 50s. Overall, though, a rather nice if not slightly-cooler-than-normal January day lies ahead.
Wednesday could be a busy weather day here in the Lowcountry as a very dynamic storm system moves into the eastern half of the continental US, dragging a cold front through the Southeast throughout the day with showers and thunderstorms ahead of it.
There’s not too much to write home about in the weather department for Tuesday. We’ll get off to a near-freezing start in the metro area, with temperatures dipping below 32° further inland as well as in more rural spots. Plenty of sunshine, though, will help drive temperatures to around 60° in the afternoon. Overall, a bright, brilliant late January day.
Sunday will be an active weather day across the area as a somewhat complex storm system moves through the Southeast US. Needed rain will fall throughout the day, but some of that rain might be heavy at times near a morning high tide that would cause flooding on a sunny day.
