Today's Forecast

After a muggy Sunday across the Lowcountry, looks like our chance for storms will be on the increase as we head into Monday. An upper level low will continue to trek across the southeast over the next few days. This will keep our weather unsettled, especially during the day tomorrow. Overnight, we may see a few isolated storms, otherwise, expect mostly cloudy skies with lows in the mid to upper 60s. Monday should start out dry, but scattered showers and storms will develop by early afternoon. A few storms may produce frequent lightning and heavy rain. Highs will be in the low 80s. Rain chances will then decrease into the middle of the work.

Have a great Monday !!
