Storm Team 3 Forecast: More showers and storms are possible Tuesday
Share this @internewscast.com

This evening we’ve been monitoring rain and thunderstorms. Occasionally, a few storms have intensified to strong or severe levels, with the main threats being damaging winds and hail.

Significant rainfall has posed another problem, with some storm cells producing over 5 inches of rain per hour, causing further flooding concerns in our inland areas.

VIPIR Radar estimates that many areas received well over 6″ of rain over the past 5 days.

More rain and thunderstorm activity is expected to continue into Tuesday.

However, the overall coverage of rain will be less than what we have experienced in the Coastal Empire and Lowcountry over the past few days. 

River flooding will be an issue going into mid-week. Flood warnings have been issued for portions of the Savannah, Canoochee and Ohooppee Rivers.

Our local rivers are not forecast to reach major flood stages, but river levels will become significantly higher over the next day or so. 

A drier pattern will emerge for the later part of the week.

Well-above normal highs are expected for Thursday and into the weekend with highs in the low to mid 90s for much of the area.

As a result of widespread heavy rain, humidity levels will rise significantly. The heat index values are expected to reach the mid to upper 90s due to the increased humidity.
