Storm Team 3: Rain chances arrive Sunday
Share and Follow

Sunday will bring another hot and humid day, and usher in the beginning of a wetter pattern across the area.

Saturday featured another day in the 90s, with humidity making it feel like 100° for some locations. More cloud cover did provide some relief from the temperatures.

Sunday will have another mild and muggy start, with temperatures in the low to mid 70s under partly to mostly cloudy skies.

Other than more clouds, a majority of the day Sunday will be fairly similar to the last few days. Temperatures will reach the 90s and humidity will add a slightly higher heat index.

A cold front moving into the region will be slowing down as it reaches the Coastal Empire and Lowcountry. The timing of the front moving through the area will help spark isolated showers and storms Sunday afternoon.

A few pockets of heavy rain may create localized flooding in areas that drain poorly. Rain chances will diminish after sunset.

A Look Ahead

The front stalling offshore will help focus moisture and rain chances to the area Monday through Wednesday. Each day will have mild mornings and a chance for scattered showers and a few rumbles of thunder around daybreak, and for the afternoon.

Temperatures will return to below average readings for the new week. Gradually, mornings will cool into the 60s and afternoons will only manage low to mid 80s.

As the week rolls on, rain chances will diminish to 20-30% and more sunshine is expected. Afternoons will be a tad warmer for the end of the week with upper 80s anticipated.

Tropics

The tropics continue to bring better news as a tropical wave, designated as Invest-91L, now only has a 20% chance of developing into a depression or named storm. Dry, stable air continues to limit thunderstorm development and organization.

The disturbance will move westward into the Caribbean Sea but does not appear to have any significant development based on computer model data.

There are no tropical threats to the Coastal Empire and Lowcountry at this time.
