Greenville, SC – Residents across the Upstate are experiencing the warmest day of the week before a cold front moves in tonight, bringing the potential for showers and thunderstorms across the mountains.
According to the US National Weather Service Greenville-Spartanburg office, high temperatures Wednesday will climb into the mid-80s across much of South Carolina, with cooler conditions arriving overnight. The greatest chance for storms is in the mountain areas, where rain may continue through the evening and overnight hours.
Forecasters say the incoming cold front will not only end the current stretch of above-average warmth but also usher in wetter weather. Relief from the heat is expected as temperatures dip later this week, providing a more fall-like feel.
Travelers and commuters should monitor conditions closely if driving through mountain passes tonight, where rain and thunderstorms could reduce visibility. The National Weather Service advises keeping an eye on local alerts in case storms intensify.
Cooler, unsettled weather is forecast to linger into Thursday and Friday, with additional rain chances possible.
