High pressure takes over, leading to a gorgeous stretch of weather! The rest of the week looks just as fantastic as Monday. Morning lows are cool and crisp with lows in the 50s area wide.

Temperatures climb to the low 80s in the Upstate and the mid to upper 70s in the mountains by the afternoon making for comfortably warm days.

The chance for showers returns for the weekend, but this is dependent on what happens with a possible coastal system later this week. Forecast models are currently split on the system’s track, but the potential exists for it to track inland over the Carolinas and Georgia, possibly with some subtropical characteristics. We’ll be keeping a close eye on this throughout the week.

And we’re dealing with high levels of ragweed this week, so that could be the culprit for your allergy symptoms. This is the time of year for Ragweed and it usually remains “offensive” for a few weeks.
