Rock Hill, SC, Experiences Clear and Cold Conditions on December 13, 2025
Good morning, Rock Hill! It’s a chilly start to the day as temperatures dip to a crisp 35°F (2°C) this early morning, with clear skies creating a beautiful backdrop. If you’re stepping outside shortly, prepare yourself for temperatures that were in the low 30s just a few hours ago, making it a perfect time to snuggle up in your coziest winter wear.
Morning Chill: What to Expect
As we take a closer look at the hourly forecast, it seems like today is going to stay mostly clear. You might want to grab that warm cup of coffee because the temperatures have been hovering around 30°F (-1°C) for quite some time. The chilly air is expected to stick around, with the morning gradually warming up to around 34°F (1°C) by 9:00 AM.
For those who love tracking the sun, remember that sunrise today was at 7:26 AM, and we’ll get to bask in its light until sunset at 5:18 PM. That gives us a decent length of 9 hours and 51 minutes of daylight
A Glimpse at the Afternoon
As the day progresses, the weather will remain mostly cloudy, but don’t worry, there’s no significant precipitation heading this way. Keep an eye out for a potential 20% chance of rain after 1 AM tonight, although it seems quite unlikely. If you’re planning to be outside later today, expect temperatures to rise gradually, peaking at 53°F (12°C) around 1 PM.
Winds are calm right now, but will shift to the west-southwest at about 5 mph in the afternoon, making it feel a tad brisker. Make sure to keep that jacket handy while you enjoy your day!
A Bit of History on This Day
On this day, back in 1960, a pre-winter blizzard slammed into the northeastern U.S., producing incredible wind gusts and heavy snowfall. While we are enjoying mild, clear weather today, that history serves as a chilly reminder that winter can sometimes pack a punch. Just a few inches of snow and wind gusts were enough to create quite the scene in areas like Nantucket!
Local Festivities on the Horizon
In more festive news, tonight is set to be exciting with the York County Christmas Parade scheduled from 6 PM to 8 PM. This event is a highlight of the holiday season, and what better way to celebrate than bundled up with loved ones watching a parade? The clear evening skies should provide a lovely backdrop for all the floats and festivities.
So whether you’re heading out to enjoy the parade or keeping it cozy at home, make sure to safely embrace the spirit of the season. And don’t forget, tomorrow it will be a tad warmer, with temperatures climbing a bit more, so there’s a lovely winter ahead!
That wraps up your weather report for today, Rock Hill! Stay warm, stay safe, and enjoy your day!
