Here is our Tuesday (6-2) Hour by Hour Forecast…after seeing quite a bit of rainfall on Mon, today will be overall drier.

There is a little bump in the chance of rain late morning and early afternoon, so we will be watching radar trends.

Cooler today, with highs in the 70’s

[Rob Fowler @RobStormTeam2]

Heavy rainfall moving into an area which received significant rainfall earlier today, in addition to a high tide, has prompted the issuance of a Flash Flood Warning for parts of Berkeley, Dorchester, and Charleston Counties.
Flash Flood Warning Until 12:15am Tuesday (6-2)

[Rob Fowler @RobStormTeam2]

We are still tracking a cluster of strong thunderstorms with heavy rainfall moving SE across the area, just entering upper Berkeley Co. as of 8:30pm Monday. Be alert for these storms as they move in over the next 2-3 hours.
VIPIR Radar as of 8:30pm Monday (6-1)

Some life news. I have officially retired from the NWS. It was time to move on. I haven’t completely left the field as I will be teaching for the College of Charleston this fall, but no more shift work!

[Rob Fowler @RobStormTeam2]

Radar Update as of 2:30pm Saturday shows a few showers and thunderstorms are moving from the midlands toward the coast this Saturday afternoon. Most of us will stay dry, but we will see a few heavier downpours in the next few hours.
