We've learned these pumpkins were on the way to nearby Hibben United Methodist Church for their yearly fundraiser. Profits from pumpkin sales go to local non-profit groups. Nic Bass will have the story on @FOX24Charleston News at 6:30pm and 10pm. #chsnews
Officers have right two lanes of Coleman Blvd coming off the Ravenel Bridge blocked because an 18-wheeler struck a low-hanging limb and spilled its load of pumpkins.
I remember seeing Marcus working at Bi-Lo on Bees Ferry Road. Always a smile. Loved helping customers. An innocent, sweet soul with a big heart. May he rest in peace. ❤️
I’m beyond saddened to hear the news of Marcus Kronick’s passing. Marcus WAS sports in this town. He loved CofC. He loved The Stingrays. He loved the Riverdogs. He loved his alma mater, UAB. He was my company on so many hundreds of afternoons and evenings at Patriots Point. At the Coliseum. At TD Arena. At Joe Riley Park. He was iconic. His knowledge of Charleston sports was unsurpassed. But more, he was simply a good person. A caring soul. He laughed. He thought every pick off was a balk. He knew statistics and baseball cards more than anybody I know. He sat and told me story after story after story. They really are the soundtrack of so many years of covering games across town. I remember he was so missed during Covid, CofC coaches purchased a Marcus cutout to place in the seats. We chatted about every Jewish holiday and Jewish athlete known to man. I remember tearing up I was laughing so hard when he was yelling about a certain player hitting a home run on Passover and that he was “fueled by matzah” He didn’t lose a sports argument. No last name was ever needed. In lowcountry sports, he was simply- Marcus. Ask any coach who has patrolled our sidelines, dugouts or benches. They’ll know the voice. It’ll be missed so dearly. May his memory be a blessing.
So the NCAA requires you stop play for 30 minutes if a lightning strike is 8 miles from a stadium…
BUT if College GameDay and a Primetime game is on the line they will invite people into the path of a Category 3 major hurricane.

HAPPENING NOW: East Bay Street in downtown Charleston is underwater as heavy training showers have dumped several inches in a very short period of time. DO NOT drive through any flooded roadways. I nearly got stuck driving onto the peninsula. Video taken by me. #scwx#chswx@BILLWALSHTV@NWSCharlestonSC
@SteelCitySunday Please let me know when you return to the Lowcountry. Would love to break bread with you and discuss life, liberty, and the return to old school radio. Plenty of Pittsburghers in Charleston!
@SteelCitySunday I forgot about Bruce Keidan! WJAS was another fine institution. You and I just missed each other. The Telecom Act was and is a disaster. Radio will never be the same.
@SteelCitySunday I must have just missed you. Nancy Segerdahl was the executive producer. Tom Clendenning was PD. The morning show was all-news until 9am. Phil Musick was there, too. Super cool guy. WTAE-AM was a great radio station.
@SteelCitySunday Not long after. Alan Boal, Joe DiStio, and Alexandria Chakolis. Chris Capra was the executive producer. Solid shop. I learned so much. Lynn Cullen hosted middays. I think Doug Hoerth hosted afternoon drive.
We're trying to confirm more information about a fire on the Drayton Hall Drawbridge railroad tracks over the Ashley River in West Ashley. Jacob Patterson took this video near Tall Sail Drive, not far from Hwy. 61. @FOX24Charleston#chsnews
