and East Central Georgia
National Weather Service Columbia SC
412 AM EST Fri Nov 22 2024

.DISCUSSION...
Breezy winds once again today out of the west, although not as
strong as yesterday. Cooler temperatures today will lead to RH a
bit higher with minimum RH around 35 percent. High pressure
currently over the Plains will shift over the southeastern US this
weekend leading to light winds and continued dry weather.
Temperatures warm up early next week with a cold front expected to
move through the area Tuesday, although chances for rain
associated with the front are low.

Fog Potential Tonight: Fog not expected tonight.
