Greenville is starting Monday, October 26, with clear skies and a cool morning before sunshine lifts the temperature to about 71 degrees. The Upstate's dry run now looks likely to last through Friday, but the forecast has added a weekend rain wrinkle.

Sunshine Builds Through Friday

Monday stays sunny with a light northeast wind around 6 mph, and Monday night drops to about 46. The National Weather Service Greenville-Spartanburg forecast keeps Tuesday sunny near 74, Wednesday mostly sunny near 71, Thursday mostly sunny near 74 and Friday sunny near 77. In other words, the week starts jacket-at-breakfast and patio-by-lunch.

Weekend Plans Get A Rain Asterisk

Saturday should still be partly sunny with a high near 75 and only a 6% rain chance. That changes after 1 a.m. Sunday, when shower chances rise to 30% Saturday night and 50% Sunday; Sunday will be partly sunny with a high near 72.

A Noticeable Update For The Upstate

The shift is meaningful because the earlier Hoodline outlook described a mostly dry stretch into the weekend; the latest forecast now puts rain back on the planning map. Greenville residents can still make the most of the workweek outdoors, but anyone scheduling longer Saturday-night or Sunday plans should keep a backup option handy as the timing develops.

Cool Mornings, Mild Afternoons

For Greenville, the practical pattern is simple: chilly starts in the 40s, sunny afternoons in the low to upper 70s, and light northeast winds most days. No active alerts are listed for South Carolina, while patchy frost remains possible in parts of the North Carolina mountains and foothills early Monday under a Frost Advisory lasting until 8 a.m.
