121 FNUS52 KCAE 031818 FWFCAE Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Central South Carolina and East Central Georgia National Weather Service Columbia SC 218 PM EDT Wed Jul 3 2024 .DISCUSSION... An upper ridge remains in control of the region on Independence Day. The ridge will combine with high pressure off the coast to produce warmer temperatures and higher RH values. However, it still looks like a mainly dry day with the best chance for isolated showers and thunderstorms across the CSRA during the afternoon and evening hours. The increase in temperatures and moisture continues through Friday. Despite the expected rise in moisture across the forecast area, much of the region remains in drought conditions resulting in increased fire danger. Fog potential for tonight: Areas of fog possible, mainly in the southeastern Midlands and CSRA.
