Lake Wind Advisory Beats Down on Rock Hill, SC: What You Need to Know
Hey there, Rock Hill! Mark your calendars for December 29, 2025, as a Lake Wind Advisory has been issued for your area. If you’re planning a day out on the water or near the lakes, it’s best to stay informed and take some extra precautions. The advisory is in effect from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM EST, so let’s dive into what you can expect!
Current Weather Snapshot
As of this morning, just after the clock struck 6:00 AM, the skies are overcast with temperatures hovering around 48°F (9°C). Those cozy, cloudy conditions might make you want to grab a warm drink and cuddle up. But if you’re gearing up for a whirl around the lake, brace yourself for an evolving weather scene!
Your Hourly Forecast
Here’s the lowdown on how the day is shaping up:
- 2:00 AM: Still cloudy at 45°F (7°C)
- 3:00 AM: Warming up a smidge to 48°F (9°C)
- 4:00 AM: A comfortable 50°F (10°C)
- 5:00 AM: Climbing to 53°F (12°C)
- 6:00 AM: Now you’re at 56°F (14°C)

So while the temperatures might feel inviting, be ready for some rain as the day progresses!
Windy Business on the Water
The key factor in today’s advisory is the wind. In the morning, light winds from the southwest blow at about 8 km/h (5 mph). But hold onto your hats, folks! By the afternoon, those winds pick up to a brisk 20 km/h (12 mph). This could create some choppy conditions on the lakes, especially if you’re planning on boating or any water sports.
Later in the day, expect west-northwest winds to taper back to around 13 km/h (8 mph). Always a good idea to check conditions before you set off!
Humidity and Other Notes
For those interested in humidity levels, the air will be quite moist, ranging from around 89% in the morning to about 49% by evening. So if you feel a bit sticky or clammy, you’re not alone!
Sunrise today was at 7:31 AM EST, and you can look forward to a lovely sunset at 5:21 PM EST to wrap up your day.
Safety First! Take These Precautions
Just a friendly reminder, a Special Weather Statement was also issued yesterday, warning folks about patchy dense fog. Visibility is expected to drop to 1/2 mile or less at times. So take it slow if you’re driving or out and about!
Given the windy conditions and previous fog alerts, consider this your cue to play it safe! If you’re engaging in outdoor activities, especially on the lakes, be extra cautious. Choose safe spots, and maybe save that day on the water for another time if it feels a bit too wild.
So, there you have it, Rock Hill! Enjoy your day, and stay safe out there!
