Hello everyone, Jared Smith here with your Charleston weather forecast for Thursday, April 11th, 2024.

Thursday will be a busy weather day as showers and thunderstorms move across the area in association with a cold front.

It’ll be a breezy day too.

Expect gusts approaching, if not exceeding, 40 miles an hour at times, especially in bridges and overpasses.

We’ll have a wind advisory in effect starting at 8am as a result.

It should be raining when we wake up in the morning, and it’ll be around for much of the day.

Embedded thunderstorms will be possible as well, and if enough instability can be realized, a few damaging wind gusts will be possible too.

The better risk for severe weather will stay to our south though, where more quality moisture will be available.

Still, even without severe storms, wet soils may allow for some tree damage at lower wind speeds.

And as a result, sporadic power outages could still be an issue, so be ready just in case.

Before it’s over, we can generally expect an inch to an inch and a half of rain in most spots with locally heavier amounts possible.

Temperature wise, it’s going to be quite mild and muggy.

Expect to start the day in the upper 60s, with highs peaking in the mid to upper 70s, and that’ll be tempered a bit by the rainfall.

Showers and thunderstorms should exit by the evening, and the weather will continue to improve from there, with a nice stretch of sunny and increasingly warm weather for Friday and the weekend.

Friday’s highs top out in the mid 70s, upper 70s for Saturday, and low 80s for Sunday, with just a cloud or two dotting the skies.

Hang in there y’all, it’ll be worth it.

And that was Charleston Weather Daily for April 11th, 2024.
