Hate the heat, but HURRAY for some drier weather. After at least 18 months, my yard is finally starting to dry out a little and I may even be able to catch up with my mowing. Now if we can just cool it down to normal or a little below...

CAE now the hottest place in the US - 100 at 2pm. Glad i'm not there!

Today and all this week the SE is hotter than Vegas, Phoenix, and Death Valley; that's pretty sad! Right now, Hazlehurst Ga, Augusta, and Columbia SC are the warmest places in the US! http://www.wx-now.com/Weather/WxExtremes?hottest=true&usa=true as CAE seems to be about the epicenter, here is a link to current area temps. http://www.wx-now.com/Weather/WxLocal?place_id=50480

1pm observations: GSP 92 ATL 91 CLT 92 FLO 94 MCN 94 CHS 95 CAE 97 Orangeburg 95 Augusta 96

Gonna be a hot one today, here are the 11am temps and dews: GSP 86/63 ATL 86/67 CLT 86/68 FLO 88/71 MCN 91/67 CHS 92/65 CAE 92/68 Orangeburg 92/69 Augusta 93/66

Hard to believe the heat we are looking at for May this weekend! GSP has not hit 90 yet but will do so easily on Friday if not before. GSP has not been higher than 96 since July 25th 2016, but could well surpass that ere the month is out! Not looking forward to this AT ALL! I remember one year back in the mid 90s when a May heat wave reached the mid 90s and ended up being the hottest weather all summer. Would be nice if that happened again here, but something tells me this is gonna be another 2016, 2012, 1993 type of summer.

Accuweather gets you out to August 12th , gives me an 87 that day.

Boy, REALLY hope TWC is overdoing this heat for late next week, mid 90s gonna be torture!

Pretty crazy, 28.5 here, and that following one of the wettest years on record.

44.6 this am; beautiful! Not unheard of but fairly unusual for mid May in the upstate.

I swear you live on a different planet.

Haven't checked weather in a few days but WOW, looks awesome early next week. Some 40s coming for mid May, I'll take it every time.

Thank goodness for accuweather; summer of 2003 incoming.

Looking summer like the rest of the week. Low 90s for CAE!

42 this morning, not bad.

Wow! BTW, just noticed NWS point forecast shows a chance of snow mixed in all the way down to the NC/SC border including Caeser's Head, Sassafras, etc. Shows Mt Mitchell at 5800 ft level getting 5-7 inches of snow.

I'm so jealous of you guys, feels like we never had a winter here in the upstate and now we're looking at temps 10-15 above normal for the forseeable future after a "coolish" Sat. Been nice the past few days and mornings but the heat is coming.

Well not seeing much good news on the horizon. One day of a wedge on Saturday and then it looks to be an early summer type pattern for the forseeable future with temps around 82/60 for the upstate, or about 10-15 degrees above average! Would love to have a longer cooler spring, maybe keep some 70s/50s for a few weeks but not in the cards. Oh well, at least Accuweather doesn't have me hitting 90 until June 21st!

38 this morning; glorious!

OMG , absolutely gorgeous this morning! Just like Fall, way nicer than all this Spring weather we've been having. Wish I could replay this every day till Mid October!

Welp; heat, humidity, weeds, skeeters already EVERYWHERE in my neighborhood at least, pollen, allergies, bees, bugs, already mowed my front twice and dandelions everywhere, back yard looks like a jungle of twisted weeds and onion patches, Argentine Ants in the house; I'm already sick of it! I wish I could just repeat October through March weather every year and never have April through September weather!

"Last time you were but the learner, now you are the master."

Down to 37.6 at 11pm. I don't expect to see anything here but it would be nice. Last time I remember any April flurries was 2007. Most April snow I ever remember was about a 45 minute shower around lunch time in the middle of April 2003. Was just barely starting to stick on the cars but that was the best could do. Honestly it's just nice to see some cool temps and frost in April.

Well i've dropped nicely since sunset, down to 40.6 in Easley, still a ways to go. Plus, there'll be the obligitory 4-8 degree rise in temps when the clouds roll in so... Need the precip sheild 50 miles NW of current projections. Best chances here will be Laurens to Rock Hill to Gboro I think.
