Spartanburg, SC – Warm spring sunshine will dominate South Carolina skies this week, culminating in an unseasonably hot Easter Sunday in Spartanburg. Residents can expect high temperatures climbing steadily from the low 70s Thursday to the mid-80s by the weekend, peaking at 86°F on Sunday.
According to the National Weather Service in Greenville-Spartanburg, clear skies and rising temperatures will define the extended forecast. Thursday will reach 72°F with calm winds, followed by Friday’s high near 81°F as light southerly breezes pick up. Saturday warms further to 84°F with partly sunny conditions, and Easter Sunday brings a high of 86°F with no rain in sight.
The warm stretch could increase demand on local cooling systems. Residents planning Easter gatherings outdoors should bring shade and stay hydrated. Travelers along I-85 and U.S. Route 221 should also prepare for glare and possible traffic spikes over the holiday weekend.
Moisture remains limited through Sunday, with no significant rain expected until Monday night, when a 30 percent chance of showers returns. Winds will remain mostly calm, offering little relief from the weekend heat. Friday afternoon may bring brief gusts up to 20 mph.
