Greenville is starting Saturday with cloudy skies, chilly temperatures and a north wind that will make the morning feel sharper than the calendar suggests. The high should reach about 65 degrees, but gusts may approach 30 mph before skies brighten later in the day.
Sunshine Arrives With Strong Winds
A brief shower is possible early, although rain chances fall quickly after daybreak. According to the National Weather Service, winds will run 14 to 18 mph from the north, with gusts as high as 28 mph through the afternoon.
That makes Saturday a good day for a jacket, especially for anyone walking, biking or spending time outdoors. Temperatures should climb through the 50s and reach the low-to-mid 60s during the afternoon, with mostly sunny skies by midday.
Clear, Cold Night Ahead
Saturday night will turn clear and noticeably colder, with a low near 42 degrees and continued northeast breezes. Sunday will stay sunny but cool, topping out around 62 degrees with gusts up to 26 mph.
The coldest conditions are expected in nearby mountain areas. The National Weather Service has issued a freeze warning for parts of the North Carolina mountains and frost advisories for portions of the South Carolina mountains and northeast Georgia from 1 a.m. to 9 a.m. Sunday, while Greenville itself is not included in those alerts.
Warmth Builds Next Week
The forecast settles down after the weekend, with sunny skies and highs near 67 on Monday. Temperatures then rebound to about 74 Tuesday and remain in the low-to-mid 70s through Friday, with little or no rain expected.
