Tuesday's forecast: Perfect weather to hit the polls
Hello everyone, Jared Smith here with your Charleston weather forecast for Election Day, Tuesday, November 7th, 2023.
It’ll be another solid day of weather in the Lowcountry as we head to the poles.
We start the day in the upper 40s, but we’ll warm quickly to about 80 degrees or so in the afternoon under sunny skies, so you won’t need that light jacket for very long.
Winds will be generally out of the west and eventually the southwest around 5-10 mph, and that westerly component of wind should help Tuesday feel a little bit drier than we felt on Monday.
Above normal temperatures will continue on Wednesday and for the rest of the work week.
Moisture will slowly make a return to the area, and we’ll see this through gradually increasing cloud cover on Thursday and especially into Friday as a cold front starts to approach the area.
While there’s still plenty of wiggle room for exact timing on this front, we can expect it to get through sometime late Friday through early Saturday.
A shower or two can’t be ruled out, but any measurable rain will be meager at best, certainly not enough to bust us loose from the abnormally dry conditions on the drought monitor.
We’ll see a sharp cool down on Saturday though, and that’ll turn even cooler starting Sunday as high pressure wedges in from the north.
We may also start to see a few showers from time to time Sunday and Monday as well.
Stay tuned, don’t get your hopes up.
And finally peeking into the tropics we see, well, nothing.
And nothing is good.
And that was Charleston Weather Daily for November 7th, 2023.
