Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Central South Carolina
and East Central Georgia
National Weather Service Columbia SC
258 PM EST Sat Dec 21 2024

.DISCUSSION...
Cold and dry conditions continue into Sunday as high pressure to
our north remains the driver of our weather. Subfreezing overnight
temperatures are likely again across the forecast area Sunday
night. The next chance of rain comes from a potential coastal 
storm Monday night into Tuesday morning, mainly across the eastern
Midlands. Beyond this, there will be chances of rain through the 
mid to late week period with gradually warming temperatures.

Fog Potential Tonight: None
