FIRE WEATHER PLANNING FORECAST FOR CENTRAL SOUTH CAROLINA
AND EAST CENTRAL GEORGIA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE COLUMBIA SC
322 AM EDT SAT OCT 20 2018
..GUSTY WINDS AND DRY CONDITIONS EXPECTED SUNDAY
DISCUSSION
A COLD FRONTAL WILL MOVE IN TODAY WITH ISOLATED
TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND INCREASING WESTERLY WINDS. WINDS WILL
SHIFT NORTHWEST BEHIND THE FRONT LATER THIS EVENING, AND BE
GUSTY THROUGH SUNDAY MORNING. ANOTHER CONCERN IS THAT RELATIVE
HUMIDITIES WILL DROP SHARPLY ON SUNDAY, TO BETWEEN 25 AND 30
PERCENT.
FOG POTENTIAL FOR TONIGHT: MUCH DRIER AIR AND GOOD MIXING WILL
ACCOMPANY THE FRONTAL PASSAGE AND THEREFORE KEEP FOG FROM
FORMING.
