What do these numbers mean?
Feels like describes how warm or cold the air may feel. Wind and humidity can make it different from the temperature.
Rain, next 3 hrs is the highest hourly chance of rain or snow in that window. It doesn’t mean it will rain for that percentage of the time.
Wind direction is where the wind comes from. Gusts are brief bursts, above the usual wind speed.
Local readings come from the station named above; conditions at your address can differ. Any air-quality label uses OpenWeather’s five-level scale, rather than a US AQI number.

What are you planning?
For a wedding, market, game, job or trip, up to a year ahead. Far-off dates show what usually happens. As the date gets closer, the answer switches to NOAA's 2-week outlook, then the real forecast, hour by hour. Saved dates stay on this device and show what changed since your last visit.
Based on 30 years of records (1991–2020) at the Savannah/Hilton Head airport. Any one year can be quite different, so switch to "A specific date" as your plans firm up.
