Greenville Spartanburg Asheville Anderson, SC, August 8, 2026 —
Residents in the Greenville-Spartanburg-Asheville-Anderson region can anticipate a shift in weather patterns, moving from a weekend of scattered showers and thunderstorms to a significant heat build-up early next week.
Scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected to continue throughout the area on a daily basis until Sunday. Following this period of unsettled weather, temperatures are projected to rise substantially.
By next week, daily high temperatures are forecast to return to the 90s Fahrenheit. More notably, the “feels like” temperatures, which account for humidity, are expected to reach triple digits. Conditions are predicted to intensify by mid-week, with “feels like” temperatures potentially reaching between 102 and 105 degrees Fahrenheit.
A potential change in the weather is on the horizon late next week, as a cold front approaches the region. This front may offer some relief from the extreme heat by the following weekend. Further details on the timing and impact of this cold front were not immediately available.
