Charleston Weather (chswx)
-
Smoke again an issue tonight; source unknown. Watch out for diminished visibilities and poor air quality from Summerville to Downtown.
-
This looks like a lot of rain, but it's not reaching the ground — radar is seeing it around 4400 ft. up. http://ur1.ca/7z4t7
-
Latest forecast discussion from NWS indicates rain chances are falling; too much dry air for measurable precip. Too bad; we need the rain!
-
Showers are pushing through Augusta, GA right now on their way to the coast later this evening. http://ur1.ca/7z3t0
-
Smoke will once again be a factor this evening. Most smoke is between I-26 and I-16 (in GA). Visibility may drop to 3-5 mi at times.
-
A few fires have flared back up; smoky skies possible this evening especially near I-95.
-
Last of the showers clearing the coast now. Skies will gradually clear up as the day wears on. Watch for stiff winds gusting to 30 MPH.
-
Squall line on track to arrive after midnight, though a few isolated showers are getting started ahead of it: http://ur1.ca/7u1km
-
We'll be dealing with showers and storms through tomorrow morning, so plan your commute appropriately.
-
Still a good idea to keep the NOAA Weather Radio set to alert you tonight in the event a severe storm does affect your location.
-
Line of storms expected to arrive after midnight: http://ur1.ca/7tvvi Lightning output less impressive.
-
It's a good day to make sure your Weather Radio is working properly as strong and occasionally severe storms are possible overnight.
-
Patchy dense fog may be a problem again this morning; be careful as visibilities could drop below 1/4 mile at times.
-
Dense fog might be an issue again this evening — drive carefully.
-
Patchy dense fog still an issue this morning; NWS says worst areas near and north of I-26.
-
Aurora fans, keep this bookmarked: http://ur1.ca/7pmrv — this is a forecast model for aurora viewing (via @wxbrad).
-
Would've been awfully tough to see anything in the city given 1) fog and 2) light pollution.
-
Looks like the best chance to see auroras have come and gone. Geomagnetic storm has calmed down.
-
According to @LCWxDave and @wxbrad, there are reports of auroras as far south as #CHS. (You'd see them looking north.) See any tonight?
-
Fog's primarily going to be an issue for the coastal counties; visibilities have generally been OK inland.
