Warm, but not record warm 

We have a much warmer mid-March ahead than normal (up to 10-12 degrees above by midweek, according to NWS forecasters). Despite the warmth, it’s going to take temperatures in the upper 80s to threaten records, and (fortunately) we’re just not going to get there.

Here are the record temperatures at Charleston Airport for the rest of the week (pulled from Weather Underground’s massive database):

  • March 12: 89 (set in 1967)
  • March 13: 88 (set in 1955)
  • March 14: 85 (set in 1985)
  • March 15: 87 (set in 1967)
  • March 16: 87 (set in 1945)
