Slow Down, It's Going to Rain: Expect Delays on Highways This Weekend

Greenville-Spartanburg, Greenville, USAFri Dec 27 2024
Listen up, everyone! This weekend is going to be wet and busy on the highways. The weather folks are saying we could get over three inches of rain from Friday to Sunday night. So, buckle up for slower drives, especially on Saturday night and Sunday morning. Don't worry about ice; it'll be pretty warm, hitting the 50s and 60s. Monday should be nice and dry, with temps around the low 60s. But for now, let's focus on the rain. The auto club AAA has some good tips: make sure your windshield wipers are in tip-top shape, check your tires, and don't forget to test your lights. Slow down, keep your distance from other cars, and skip the cruise control. It's all about staying alert and safe. If you're flying out of Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport, don't stress about the rain affecting your flight. Just plan extra time to get there. It's going to be a packed weekend, with nearly 9, 000 passengers expected on Sunday and Monday. So, arrive two hours early, book your parking ahead, and use your airline's app to stay organized.
