Hot & Humid Wednesday With Slight Chance!

CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCSC) - Not much change for our weather as we move into the middle of the week. High pressure will continue to dominate our weather with hot temperatures and only a slight chance of a spotty afternoon or evening shower or thunderstorm. We’ll turn a little hotter this weekend with some areas climbing into the upper 90s by the end of the weekend. Heat index values will top out near 100° for the next few days but climb above 105° over the upcoming weekend. The chance of rain into the weekend remains low at 30%.

TROPICS: We’re keeping an eye on a trough of low pressure NE of the Bahamas, SSW of Bermuda. This disturbance will move toward the SE coast of the US later this week. Thankfully, the chance of a development is low at this time but it *could* enhance our rain chance late this week into next week. There are two other disturbances that we are monitoring. The first is over the southeastern Caribbean Sea, and the other one is south of the Cabo Verde Islands. These disturbances pose no threat to us at this time and have a low chance to develop.
