Get ready for a mix of weather in South Carolina! The week will start off dry and cool, with the sun shining brightly. But don't get too comfortable, because rain is on its way by the weekend. A low-pressure system is moving in, bringing showers that could be heavy, especially in the western and southern parts of the state. Don't worry, though, thunderstorms aren't expected.

As we move into next week, things are about to get chilly! An arctic air mass is set to arrive, dropping temperatures significantly. We're talking highs struggling to reach the 40s from Monday through Wednesday. So, bundle up!

Let's break it down:

- Today and tonight, highs will be in the mid-40s to lower 50s, and overnight lows will plummet to the mid-20s to near 30.

- Thursday and Friday will be seasonably cool and dry, with breezy conditions on Thursday and highs in the 50s.

- Rain starts very late Friday night, continuing into Saturday and Sunday, with highs in the middle 50s.

- Next week, it's all about the cold, with highs likely to stay below normal.

Keep an eye out for another potential winter storm in the South next week. It's something to watch!
