Chapin, SC Braces for an Unseasonably Warm December Day!

With the current temperatures already running higher than average for this time of year, residents can expect a high of approximately 75°F. That’s right! This December could make you question if you skipped straight to summer.
A Muggier Day Ahead
However, don’t forget your water bottle, because those temperatures come with a side of humidity. Yes, you heard it right! Humidity levels are set to be elevated, which means you might feel a bit muggy as you go about your day. When you combine that with light winds blowing at a gentle 5-10 mph, it’ll be a day where you may want to just kick back and enjoy the warmth, preferably under a shady spot!
Thunderstorms on the Horizon
Hold on, though! While you may be thrilled about the warm weather, there’s a twist in the forecast. As we move into the late afternoon and evening hours, those warm temps could also serve as fuel for some potential thunderstorms. The forecast indicates a 60% chance of precipitation, so make sure to keep an eye on the sky as you plan your afternoon activities.
These thunderstorms may not just be a light rumble, either. Residents should prepare for the possibility of heavy rain and gusty winds sweeping across the area. A cozy evening indoors could be in order if the storms decide to make a splash! Make sure you stay connected for the latest weather updates, just in case the weather decides to throw a tantrum.
Cloudy Skies and Cozy Nights

Don’t forget that sunrise was bright and early at around 7:05 AM, marking the beginning of a day filled with delightful weather changes.
As the sun makes its way down, expect the temperature to dip to around a comfy 60°F tonight. With a cozy atmosphere settling in, it might just be the perfect opportunity to grab your favorite blanket and wind down indoors as evening storms roll through. However, if you are a fan of stormy weather, it could become a welcoming ambiance!
Be Prepared!
