Greenville woke Wednesday under cloudy skies, with a damp, breezy day ahead. Showers and patchy fog were possible, with highs in the 60s to low 70s across the region, keeping the Upstate feeling more like early fall than the recent summer heat.

Rain And Fog Hang On Through Thursday

Strong northeast winds are expected Wednesday. Patchy fog may develop late Wednesday morning and linger into the afternoon, according to the National Weather Service.

Rain is expected to continue through Thursday. The broader forecast area remains vulnerable to locally heavy rain and flash flooding, especially near the escarpment.

Thursday should stay mostly cloudy, with a high near 70. No watches, warnings or advisories are listed for Greenville County, but drivers should avoid standing water if heavier showers develop.

Sunny Weekend Arrives After The Damp Stretch

The pattern turns drier Friday into the weekend. Cooler temperatures and highs in the low 70s in parts of the Upstate are expected to persist through at least Friday. Saturday is expected to be drier.

Warmer temperatures are expected to trend into the middle of next week, with drier air lasting through at least Tuesday. That marks a sharp reset from the rain-and-cooldown pattern.
