Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Central South Carolina
and East Central Georgia
National Weather Service Columbia SC
217 AM EDT Sat Jun 6 2026

.DISCUSSION...
Dry high pressure remains anchored across the southeast
again today. This will help to keep skies mostly clear,
winds generally light but out of the south, and MinRH
values between 30 to 40 percent. Surface high pressure
shifts offshore later Sunday allowing for marginal
moisture to increase with weak but deeper southwesterly
flow. Higher chances for rainfall are not expected until
early next week.

Fog potential tonight: Low chance mainly near rivers.
