High pressure is on its way out, allowing for temperatures to recover a little bit; it’s also allowed for a weak trough of low pressure to set up along the Carolina coast, which will keep clouds around. NWS is forecasting upper 60s for many locations today with a rebound into the 70s by tomorrow. Sprinkles may be possible but the next best rain chance comes Friday into Saturday (models diverge a bit still on intensity and timing).

This week is Severe Weather Awareness Week in SC; fortunately, SC and the country have been quiet on the severe weather front after last week’s deadly storms. It’s a good time to review your safety plan for severe weather (all types: hail, straight-line winds, tornadoes, and hurricanes). What are a few things you do to keep safe when storms arrive?
