CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCBD) – Severe storms are possible Monday as a cold front pushes across the state.

Storm Team 2 Meteorologist Jed Christoph said temperatures will warm into the low to mid-80s ahead of the front, with breezy south winds in the afternoon. A squall line will move through the Lowcountry between 5 p.m. and 8 p.m., bringing that threat for severe weather.

Strong damaging straight-line wind gusts are the main concern; however, there is a low risk for isolated tornadoes as the line of storms pushes through the region. Hail and lightning are also concerns.

Christoph said inland locations are at the highest risk for severe weather. The threat should be over by 9 p.m., with lingering showers into the night.
