FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR CENTRAL SOUTH CAROLINA
AND EAST CENTRAL GEORGIA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE COLUMBIA SC
148 AM EDT SAT JUL 12 2025
DISCUSSION
A DECK OF LOW STRATUS CLOUDS IS LIKELY TO DEVELOP ACROSS MUCH OF
THE FORECAST AREA BY DAYBREAK DUE TO AMPLE LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE
LEFTOVER FROM YESTERDAY'S CONVECTION. IT MAY ONCE AGAIN TAKE
AWHILE FOR THE LOW CLOUDS TO BURN OFF, ESPECIALLY IN AREAS THAT
SAW HEAVY RAINFALL YESTERDAY. STATUS CLOUDS SHOULD LIFT AND
TRANSITION TO SCATTERED CUMULUS BY MIDDAY, FOLLOWED BY THE
DEVELOPMENT OF SCATTERED AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. A
FEW THUNDERSTORMS COULD BECOME STRONG TO MARGINALLY SEVERE,
PRODUCING STRONG WINDS, SMALL HAIL, AND HEAVY RAINFALL. HOT AND
HUMID CONDITIONS ARE ANTICIPATED SUNDAY AND MONDAY WITH LOWER
RAINFALL CHANCES. THIS CHANGES DURING THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK WHEN
UPPER RIDGING BREAKS DOWN AND RESULTS IN MORE SEASONAL
TEMPERATURES AND SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS AFTERNOON AND EVENING
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
FOG POTENTIAL: LOW CHANCES EXCEPT NEAR BODIES OF WATER.
