First Alert Summary
Tonight a line of rain and storms move through the Midlands. We could see heavy downpours and some gusty winds. The Storm Prediction Center has us under a “Marginal” Level 1 risk of severe weather for tonight’s cold front passage, so we’ll keep the First Alert Weather Day up as travel for the holiday season is still high. Chance of rain is around 90%. Low temps are in the low 60s.
Wednesday we have a 60% chance of showers lingering from west to east as the front continues to push to the east. Expect a 100% chance of rain for places east of I 95. Rain showers end by midday and temperatures get into the mid 60s with skies becoming partly cloudy.
Thanksgiving is cooler and dry as a high pressure system dominates our weather. Expect partly cloudy skies with low 60s for highs.
Friday a small shortwave in the jet stream swings east and creates a weak low pressure system at the surface of the earth. This will bring a 30% chance of some spotty showers and drizzle. Expect mostly cloudy skies with highs in the mid 60s.
Saturday is cooler with mid to upper 50s for high temps. Expect partly cloudy skies, lows overnight will be in the mid 30s. Bundle up for the Palmetto Bowl!
