COLUMBIA, S.C. — High pressure will continue to dominate our weather today, but moisture will increase through the rest of the workweek.

Yesterday was warm across the area. Highs were in the upper 70s and lower 80s. It will be another warm day across the Midlands today. Highs will be generally in the lower 80s.

Our average high this time of the year is 75 degrees. The record high today is 89 degrees. That record was set in 1984.

We are expecting a dry day, but our forecast model does try to bring in an isolated shower along and east of I-95 today. Most of the area will not receive any measurable rainfall this afternoon.

Tonight the clouds will increase. There may be some patchy dense fog Wednesday morning. Low temperatures Wednesday will be in the lower to middle 60s.

Our average low temperature this time of the year is closer to 50 degrees.
