NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE COLUMBIA SC
152 PM EDT MON OCT 26 2026
DISCUSSION
THE FORECAST FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK IS FAIRLY SIMILAR
TO PREVIOUS ONES. HIGH PRESSURE SHOULD KEEP DRY CONDITIONS
ACROSS THE REGION WITH FAIRLY LIGHT WINDS REMAINING OUT OF
THE NORTHEAST MUCH OF THE WEEK. AS THE INVERSION BREAKS EACH
MORNING, A FEW GUSTS TO 15-20 MPH COULD BE POSSIBLE FOR A
COUPLE HOURS. MINIMUM RH VALUES ARE EXPECTED TO FALL TOWARD
25-30% TUESDAY BEFORE A SLIGHT INCREASE IN LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE BRINGS VALUES ABOVE 40% THE REST OF THE WORK
WEEK.
FOG POTENTIAL: SOME SHELTERED AREAS COULD SEE SOME SHALLOW GROUND
FOG IN THE MORNING.
