NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE COLUMBIA SC
152 PM EDT SUN OCT 4 2026
DISCUSSION
THE COLD FRONT IS IN THE SOUTHERN CWA AND PERIODS OF MODERATE
TO HEAVY RAIN WILL BE POSSIBLE TONIGHT INTO EARLY MONDAY MORNING,
MAINLY TOWARD OUR FAR SOUTHERN TIER OF COUNTIES WHERE A LOCALIZED
SPOT OF 2"+ CANNOT BE RULED OUT. RAINFALL AMOUNTS ELSEWHERE SHOULD
BE ON THE LIGHT SIDE. THE FRONT GRADUALLY WORKS SOUTH OF THE AREA
MONDAY AND DRIER AIR WILL SLOWLY FILTER IN AS HIGH PRESSURE SHIFTS
TOWARD THE REGION DURING THE MID TO LATE WEEK. THIS SHOULD KEEP
NORTHEASTERLY WINDS, WHICH COULD BREEZY AT TIMES TUESDAY, AND DRY
WEATHER IN PLACE. MOISTURE STARTS INCREASING AGAIN TOWARD NEXT
WEEKEND.
FOG POTENTIAL: PATCHY FOG POSSIBLE AGAIN TONIGHT.
