121 FNUS52 KCAE 261812 FWFCAE Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Central South Carolina and East Central Georgia National Weather Service Columbia SC 212 PM EDT Wed Jun 26 2024 .DISCUSSION... Hot summer pattern is expected to continue into next week, with rain chances increasing noticeably Thursday and again over the weekend. Showers and storms in the afternoon are expected to be isolated-scattered each day, so a widespread wetting rain is not expected on any given day. Winds will remain generally out of the south with some gusty winds likely each afternoon as mixing develops. A front will approach the area Sunday into Monday with additional rain chances expected, followed by wind shift out of the north and drier air filling in for Monday. Fog potential for tonight: Patchy fog and low stratus possible.
