Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Charleston SC
526 PM EST Fri Nov 14 2025

.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure will remain the primary feature through the
weekend. A dry cold front will move through the area Sunday
night, followed by more high pressure for early next week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/...
High pressure will remain centered across the Southeast
tonight, providing quiet and dry conditions. It should be
another good night of radiational cooling under clear skies and
light/calm winds. Low temperatures should largely fall in the
40-45 range, except upper 40s to around 50 closer to the coast.
There are some indications that patchy fog could develop across
portions of southeast Georgia, roughly from Chatham county south
to Long/McIntosh. No mention has been added in the forecast at
this time, but it will be something to monitor.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH MONDAY/...
Surface high pressure will persist into Saturday, before
getting suppressed to the south Saturday night into Sunday in
advance of a cold front. Southwest winds could become gusty as
the pressure gradient tightens, but otherwise no weather
concerns. It will be warm by mid November standards, with highs
reaching the mid to upper 70s over most locations, a bit cooler
at the immediate coast. Lows will average in the 50-55F range.

The aforementioned front will pass through Sunday night will
little fanfare, so a dry forecast persists. High pressure will
return for Monday. Expect plenty of sun with highs closer to
seasonal norms.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
No significant weather concerns for the midweek timeframe. A
shortwave is expected to pass over the mid-Atlantic states later
Tuesday into early Wednesday, but best forcing remains to the
north, so the forecast remains rain-free. More uncertainty
arises late week as another front possibly makes its way towards
the area. Temperatures should remain on the warmer side of
normal through the period.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
15/00Z TAF Discussion:
KCHS/KJZI/KSAV: VFR through 16/00z.

Extended Aviation Outlook: Prevailing VFR.

&&

.MARINE...
Through Tonight: No marine concerns through tonight. A weak
pressure gradient will be in place as high pressure remains
across the region. Expect winds generally 10 knots or less,
initially from the northeast during the daylight hours and
ending westerly by daybreak. Seas will be 1-2 feet.

Saturday through Wednesday: Southwest winds will increase on
Saturday and especially Saturday night as high pressure gets
suppressed to the south in advance of a cold front. A Small
Craft Advisory has been issued for the Charleston county
nearshore waters Saturday night through Sunday, but it could
later need to be expanded to include portions of the other
waters, particularly the outer Georgia marine zone. The front
will pass through Sunday night with improving conditions. No
additional marine concerns are expected through the middle of
the week.

&&

.CHS WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
GA...None.
SC...None.
MARINE...Small Craft Advisory from 7 PM Saturday to 7 PM EST Sunday for
