A winter weather system is set to impact the Lowcountry region of Charleston County, S.C., this weekend with cold, windy, and wet conditions. Expect most precipitation late Saturday into early Sunday from an offshore low-pressure system, starting as rain, possibly mixing with snow, then turning to snow by Saturday night before tapering off.​
Key Forecast Details
Accumulations should remain light, but uncertainties persist in the exact snow transition timing and totals, which forecasters are tracking closely. Near-record lows in the upper teens to lower 20s are anticipated Sunday and Monday mornings, with wind chills near the lower teens potentially triggering extreme cold alerts.​
Potential Impacts
Cold and blustery weather may disrupt outdoor plans, especially for Lowcountry hikers or community events, so prepare for slick roads and limited visibility during peak precipitation. Recent NWS updates note increasing snow chances in the area, aligning with this system’s trajectory.
