When its this sticky, dewpoints in the 60s to even 70 degrees in some spots. Beverly has slipped down to spirit of South Carolina ever has slipped down to 69. When you have the humidity, the showers and storms can hold together even during the nighttime hours and i expect some of these will. This is the front pushing toward us.
