Greenville, SC – Temperatures are climbing into the 70s by Friday afternoon, setting the stage for a rapid warm-up that will push highs into the mid-80s by Sunday across the western Carolinas.
According to the National Weather Service in Greenville-Spartanburg, dry conditions and increasing sunshine will dominate through the weekend, with highs reaching the upper 70s Saturday before peaking in the low to mid-80s Sunday and Monday. These readings approach near-record levels for late March.
Cities including Greenville, Spartanburg, Anderson, and Asheville will experience consistent warming, with mild overnight lows in the upper 40s to low 50s limiting overnight cooling. The stretch of dry weather supports outdoor activities but may begin to dry out vegetation, especially in areas that have not seen recent rainfall.
Major corridors like I-85 and I-26 will see no weather-related travel issues, though the warm temperatures may catch some residents off guard after recent cooler conditions.
The warm pattern is expected to hold through Monday before any changes arrive early next week. Additional updates will follow if temperatures trend higher or approach record thresholds.
