AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW/WAGT) – Burn Ban Alert: All South Carolina counties in the CSRA are under a burn ban beginning today. Do not burn yard debris or have outdoor fires. Very dry fuel on the ground combined with relative humidity below 30% the next few afternoons means fires will be able to spread quickly.
Cooler days ahead to start the new week
A cold front will push through midday Sunday, putting an end to the record breaking warmth. Highs will drop from near 90 Saturday to the middle 70s Sunday.

Upcoming Week
