South Carolina is waking up to wet streets and a gray sky across Spartanburg, where rain continues to fall late this morning. Water beads on windshields along I-85, and patchy fog hangs low over neighborhoods near Boiling Springs.
According to the National Weather Service in Greenville-Spartanburg, rain remains likely through late afternoon with highs near 48 degrees. Rainfall totals between three-quarters of an inch and one inch are possible before the system pulls away. Patchy fog reduces visibility at times, especially before midday.
Drivers should slow down on I-26 and Highway 29 where ponding develops. Heavier bursts may briefly cut visibility below a mile. Allow extra time and keep headlights on. Calm winds limit storm damage, but saturated ground can lead to minor runoff in low spots.
Rain tapers later today, and skies gradually clear by Monday morning. Sunshine returns with a high near 64 degrees. Monday night cools into the upper 30s under mostly clear skies.
By Tuesday, temperatures climb to the mid-60s with mostly sunny conditions. Midweek stays mild with highs near the upper 60s Wednesday. That warming trend strengthens into President’s Day week. Many areas across the eastern U.S. are expected to run 10 to 20 degrees above normal, signaling early spring vibes.
Additional rain chances return late week, but for now, a warm stretch is on deck.

Today: Rain, high near 48.
