FIRST ALERT: August heat returning this week


Increasing Humidity and Stray Showers Tonight

Myrtle Beach, SC – A weak disturbance offshore will continue to deliver ample moisture, creating clouds and a chance for a stray shower tonight. Temperatures are expected to hover between the mid-60s and near 70s. The overnight hours will bring in drier air, which should help dissipate the cloud cover by tomorrow morning.

Warmer Weather and More Sunshine Tomorrow

With the cloud cover moving out of the area by Sunday, residents can look forward to more sunlight and warmer weather. The humidity is set to continue its upward trend, with afternoon temperatures projected to hit the middle 80s.

High Humidity Returns Next Week

After a mildly comfortable break, the heat and humidity typical of August are due for a return in the coming week. Afternoon temperatures are likely to hit the upper 80s and lower 90s, and increasing humidity could push the heat index to near or over 100. The combination of heat and humidity also opens the door for pop-up storms, adding another layer to the weather dynamic of coming week.

Heat and Humidity May Ignite Storm Activity

The blend of extreme heat and elevated humidity levels not only causes discomfort; it also offers a conducive environment for the formation of storms. Residents are advised to stay alert and follow upcoming weather reports closely to stay safe during any potential storms.

This forecast should serve as a reminder to residents of Myrtle Beach to prioritize self-care, hydration, and safety during heatwaves, and to not underestimate the quick shifts in weather that these conditions can bring.
