FIRST ALERT: Finally! A dry weekend

MYRTLE BEACH, SC (WMBF) - Brighter skies, milder temperatures and a rain-free weekend are on the way.

TONIGHT

Similar to the previous couple of days, we will hold onto the risk of a few passing showers through the evening hours. Otherwise, fair skies and a little patchy fog settle in tonight with temperatures in the lower to middle 60s.

THIS WEEKEND

Partly cloudy skies will return with less cloud cover and more sunshine this weekend. It’s a big weekend in Conway as Coastal Carolina welcomes Duke, UNC Wilmington & Rider into town for the Conway Regional to start the NCAA Tournament. Outside of a stray shower this evening, the forecast looks lovely for baseball. Highs this weekend will be in the low-mid 80s. A few isolated upper 80 degree readings can’t be ruled out for Saturday.

For those planning to hit the beach this weekend, soak it up! Temperatures will reach the mid-upper 70s under plenty of sunshine for the weekend. For the evenings, King Tides will be expected through the evening this weekend. Expect some coastal flooding issues in those traditional spots that struggle with King Tides yearly.
