Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Central South Carolina
and East Central Georgia
National Weather Service Columbia SC
356 AM EDT Sat Jun 7 2025

.DISCUSSION...
Dry conditions expected this morning into the early afternoon
hours.  Rain chances will increase late this afternoon into
the evening hours as an area of strong thunderstorms begins to
approach the region from the west.  Additional convection will
be possible Sunday morning as yet another area of storms moves
out of the southern Appalachians.  Rain chances, with strong
storms once again will be possible afternoon.  As we move into
the middle of the week, a transition to more summer-like
diurnal convection becomes possible.

Fog Potential Tonight: Low chances of fog tonight.
