Hello, Myrtle Beach! Grab your sunglasses because it’s about to get *warm* out there! This weekend, we’re expecting temperatures to soar to near record levels on Saturday before a refreshing cold front swoops in to cool things down on Sunday. Let’s break it down so you know what to expect!
Tonight’s Forecast
First off, if you’re planning to head out tonight, you’re in for a treat! The skies are looking clear and mild, perfect for a nighttime stroll or a cozy evening on the porch. Expect overnight temperatures to drop into the *upper 50s* near the beach and the *middle 50s* farther inland. Not too shabby, right?
Saturday’s Warm Welcome
Now, let’s talk about Saturday! The weather gods are definitely smiling down on us, as *southwesterly winds* will push much warmer air right into the Carolinas. Afternoon temperatures are predicted to hit the *lower 80s* near the coast and the *middle 80s* inland. Can you believe it? That’s just a degree or two shy of breaking some record highs! This is a great day for a beach day, a hike, or hanging out in your backyard.
Weekend Transition
But hold on just a minute; things are about to change! A strong cold front will make its entrance Saturday night, and with that comes cooler temperatures for Sunday. Expect to feel a nice breeze as *northeasterly winds* swirl through. Sunday afternoon temperatures will only reach the *middle to upper 60s*. So, if you had your heart set on beach plans, you might want to bring a light jacket!
Rain Chances
There’s a slight chance we might see some precipitation Saturday night and into Sunday. The forecast shows about a 20% chance of light, quick-moving showers. But don’t let that rain on your parade! If it does rain, it should be just a sprinkle, so any wet weather shouldn’t last long. Plus, we are currently in a *28-day streak of no measurable rain*, so a little shower wouldn’t hurt, would it?
