Cooler weather moves into Aiken with storms
A cold front brings showers and cooler air to Aiken as a front moves in on Wednesday night. The National Weather Service forecasts a high of 78 today with 100 percent precipitation, then a high near 76 with sunny skies through the weekend as a high pressure system settles in. Ben Baugh notes the prior week's heat came from an East Coast upper ridge that has since moved offshore.
