Snow possible across South Carolina this afternoon and evening
COLUMBIA, S.C. (WIS) – First Alert Weather Days continue for the coldest air of the season and a chance of snow later today.
First Alert Headlines
- First Alert Weather Day: Watching the potential for snow showers in the Midlands starting this afternoon.
- First Alert Weather Days: Wednesday and Thursday remain bitterly cold across South Carolina.
First Alert Summary
Good morning! Dangerously cold temperatures and wind chills remain in effect, which is why the National Weather Service has kept us under a Cold Weather Advisory. Wind chills will stay in the teens through lunchtime. High temperatures today will barely climb above freezing.
Snow showers are likely to return to the Midlands starting this afternoon. The best chance at steady snow will occur this evening and tonight, from about 6 to 10 PM. By 2 AM, the rest of the Midlands will dry out as our storm system moves farther offshore.
In anticipation of snow accumulations, the National Weather Service has added Clarendon, Calhoun, Orangeburg and Aiken Counties into a Winter Storm Warning. These are communities where the highest totals of snowfall are likely to occur.
For the rest of the Midlands, a Winter Weather Advisory has been issued. While accumulations will be a little lower in these towns, enough snowfall is expected to cause travel concerns, especially on back roads and around bridges/overpasses.
Even though we’re dry with sunshine Wednesday morning, First Alert Weather Days will remain in effect. Lows will drop into the teens Wednesday, with highs barely climbing above-freezing. Once again, lows will drop into the teens Thursday morning, meaning additional freezing will occur.
First Alert Forecast
Today (First Alert Weather Day): Cloudy skies, with a few snow showers late in the day. Chance of snow 40%. Highs in the mid-30s.
Tonight (First Alert Weather Day): Scattered snow showers, mainly before Midnight. Chance of snow 60%. Lows in the low-20s.
Wednesday (First Alert Weather Day): A frigid morning with temperatures barely above-freezing in the afternoon. Highs in the mid-30s.
Thursday (First Alert Weather Day): After a bitter cold morning in the teens, highs will rebound to around 40 degrees under mostly cloudy skies.
Friday: Skies clearing to sunshine. Highs in the mid-40s.
Saturday: A few clouds throughout the day. Highs around 50 degrees.
Sunday: Increasing clouds during the afternoon. Highs in the mid-50s.

Dawn Staley adds pro player Alicia Tournebize to South Carolina roster for this season
Alicia Tournebize, a 6-foot-4 basketball player from France, is enrolling at South Carolina and will begin playing for coach Dawn Staley this season.
The program announced the news on Dec. 22, explaining that she “will join the team following the holiday break and begin classes at the start of the spring 2026 semester.”
Tournebize, 18, played for Tango Bourges Basket, a professional basketball club in France. She was seen dunking in multiple games, according to social media.
The No. 3 Gamecocks (12-1) have played with at most 10 players but mostly eight or nine this season, battling illness and injuries. Staley lost star forward to an ACL tear Chloe Kitts in September.
South Carolina closes non-conference play on Dec. 28 (noon ET, SEC Network) before opening SEC play against Alabama on Jan. 1 (2 p.m. ET, SEC Network+).
“Alicia has an incredible skill set and basketball IQ,” Staley said in the news release. “She has great touch around the rim, can shoot it out to the 3-point line and is a shot blocker.”
Her mother Isabelle Fijalkowski played at Colorado and was drafted into the WNBA by the Cleveland Rockets where she played from 1997-98 before returning to play in Europe. Fijalkowski is getting inducted in the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame as part of the Class of 2026.
Alicia Tournebize will play for South Carolina, Dawn Staley this season
Staley has been in need of depth long before the season officially started.
Ashlyn Watkins announced in July she’s taking the year off instead of returning and then not long after, Kitts got injured. Kitts enrolled early three years ago, joining the 2022-23 team in December 2022 like Tournebize is doing.
South Carolina signed two recruits out of high school already, Kaeli Wynn and Kelsi Andrews, but Staley said neither will enroll early so it appeared as though she would play a full season with only 10 players until now.
Tournebize will likely work her way into the lineup the same way Adhel Tac and Maryam Dauda have behind starters Madina Okot and Joyce Edwards. Edwards is leading the team with 22 points per game, Okot is averaging 15.6.
South Carolina sits 261st of 359 Division I teams in bench points, averaging 17.0 per game so if Tournebize brings offensive production, it’ll greatly enhance Staley’s depth during conference play.
On her visit, Tournebize went to the South Carolina football game on Nov. 22 with some players and then watched the women’s basketball game on Nov. 23 against Queens.
She sat behind the bench, similar to where Wynn sat during an exhibition game on her visit in October.
