Storms through midday, thick humid air lingers
High of 86, low of 76, with storms building after 8 AM and tapering after 2 PM. Southeast wind holds light, water near 84 F, the kind of muggy Lowcountry day that rewards shade and patience. Tomorrow trends a touch warmer with a slight chance of afternoon storms.
Tonight in town: Charleston Farmers Market at Marion Square, 8 AM–2 PM. Local produce, food trucks, and crafts spread across Marion Square under the oaks.
