MYRTLE BEACH, SC (WMBF) - Get ready for daily rain chances and the return of summer humidity for the rest of the week.

TONIGHT

As onshore flow become more common this afternoon, chances for showers and storms will begin to move in from the ocean and increase along the Grand Strand and inland locations. The highest rain chance this afternoon will be for the beaches at 40%. Inland locations will have a 30% chance of a shower or storm. Rain chances will go down by sunset. We’ll stay dry tonight with mostly cloudy skies with overnight lows in the mid 70s.

TOMORROW

If you take today’s forecast and copy and paste it for tomorrow, it’s pretty fair to assume the forecast will verify in most locations. Temperatures are going to remain warm and humid with highs reaching near 90 degrees across our area with index values feeling like 100 degrees for the Pee Dee. The heat and humidity will continue to bring chances for pop up showers and storms tomorrow afternoon.

REST OF THE WEEK

Expect a more active sea breeze for the middle and end of the week, allowing for showers and storms to develop each day this week. The only difference? We’ll hold onto a better chance for storms inland as we go through the end of the work week. By the time we get into Thursday and Friday, humidity will remain high but the coverage in showers and storms should keep those temperatures in the mid-upper 80s.

Highs will remain warm and the muggy meter will be high through the end of the week. Showers...

While some days will feature better rain chances than other, each day this week will feature plenty of heat and humidity. It’s not a washout forecast but there will be some much-needed rainfall for those locations still dealing with a drought. When all is said and done, 1-3″ of rain looks likely through the weekend forecast.

Rain totals when all is said and done will remain 1-3" through the weekend.
