Late Summer Temperature Forecast

It was a stormy start to summer in South Carolina.  Severe thunderstorms damaged trees and knocked out power to thousands of residents on multiple occasions during the first offical week of the new season.

As June is winding down, the 7-Day rainfall forecast from the National Weather Service Weather Prediction Center is showing generally dry conditions.

The Three-Month Precipitation Outlook from the Climate Prediction Center shows there are equal chances of below or above precipitation with above average precipitation in the Plains states.
