Morning showers and a few areas of thunder continue across the Lowcountry early on Tuesday. We will see just about a repeat of yesterday with warm and muggy temps in the lower 80s. With the sea breeze moving inland later around noon, more storms will pop up and keep some of us wet into the afternoon drive. Rain could be heavy at times. Storm chances today are around 60%.

Expect mostly sunny skies with just a few more afternoon clouds around for our Thursday. It will also be a bit more on the humid side. Highs will be in the mid to upper 80s. A few backyards may even make it over the 90° mark. Friday and into the weekend, not much change, but there is a little better chance for afternoon showers and storms.
