Spartanburg, S.C. – Rain and thunderstorms will sweep across the Upstate this weekend, bringing unsettled weather and the potential for downpours that could disrupt outdoor plans from Saturday into Monday.
According to the National Weather Service in Greenville-Spartanburg, storms are most likely between late Saturday morning and Saturday night, with rain chances near 60 percent. Showers are also possible Friday night and again Sunday afternoon into Monday. Rainfall amounts are expected to stay under an inch, but isolated heavier pockets could lead to ponding on roads.
The greatest impacts will be felt Saturday when thunderstorms may produce brief heavy rain and gusty winds across Spartanburg, Greenville, and neighboring Cherokee counties. Drivers should be alert for slick roads, especially where patchy fog lingers in the early mornings. Outdoor events may see delays or cancellations during peak storm hours.
