We packed the room a few weeks ago to warn elected officials how dangerous Clements Ferry Road has become. Another shutdown at Marina Dr this morning. We need action.

[Trooper Bob @TrooperBob_SC]

Watch out for a crash on Clements Ferry Road near Marina Drive, close to I-526. Traffic is backed up on I -526 eastbound and westbound at the Clements Ferry interchange.

🌀 Social Media ≠ Official Forecasts
As tropical storms approach, misinformation spreads fast.
✅ Use official sources
⚠️ Models ≠ forecasts

There have been many reports of a #fireball streaking across the southeastern U.S. this afternoon! The Geostationary Lightning Mapper (#GLM) on @NOAA's #GOES satellites can occasionally detect these bright meteors (aka #bolides) when they pass through the atmosphere.

See the quick flash #GOESEast captured around the Virginia/North Carolina border today. #GOES19

@LCWxDave This wind is no joke!!!

[Dave Williams @LCWxDave]

Natalie Hauff sent me this awesome picture of the shelf cloud on Daniel Island. Severe Thunderstorm Warning Warnings now extend through the Charleston metro. Take cover, wind gusts over 60mph are possible in some spots. #chswx

Flatbed truck blocking Clements Ferry Road near Beresford entrance. Traffic backed up.

Boaters beware: We're drawing down the lakes to make room for a wall of water coming from NC. Lake water will fall and rise in the next few days. If you must be in a boat, use extreme caution, avoid the Spillway, and watch for rapid water currents. https://t.co/sViVYJe2Pi

[Natalie Caula Hauff @ncaula]

This isn’t over. Helene’s effects continue as our rivers rise due to the flooding. Please continue monitoring the local news and weather.

[NWS Charleston, SC @NWSCharlestonSC]

Several area rivers are forecast to go into flood stage over the next several days as water from upstream makes its way towards the coastal plain #chswx #savwx #scwx #gawx

Local journalism matters, especially during catastrophes such as the one being experienced in Western North Carolina.

[Natalie Caula Hauff @ncaula]

Western North Carolina has experienced severe devastation. Folks are still trying to track down family members in Boone, Banner Elk (which has been cut off), Chimney Rock, Asheville, and surrounding areas.

[Andrew Gibson @1010XLAG]

Absolutely heartbreaking footage from my college town of Boone, NC.

It’s so tough to see a place you know so well and love so much get devastated like this.

Worst flooding since at least 1940, per @wxbrad.

Praying hard for my Boone people.

My heart. 💔Western NC. 😭 Home to Asheville, App State, Blue Ridge Parkway, Appalachian Mountains. Highways gone. Small towns gone. People stranded. Please donate to Red Cross!! 🙏 https://t.co/j5TKD5b4iD

[NWS Charleston, SC @NWSCharlestonSC]

The greatest concern in regards to impacts associated with Hurricane #Helene will be the risk for tropical tornadoes later today and tonight. Have a tornado plan in place in case a warning is issued.

[NWS Charleston, SC @NWSCharlestonSC]

Strong to severe thunderstorms will be possible tomorrow afternoon into the evening hours ⛈ #chswx #savwx #scwx #gawx

[SCDOT @SCDOTPress]

AVOID THE AREA: I-26 near Ridgeland

Following additional significant rainfall overnight, I-26 in both directions near MM 189 east of Cypress Campground overpass is currently flooded. Law enforcement is actively working to move traffic out of the roadway. (1/2)

[Trooper Nick SCHP @SCHP_Troop6]

🚨Berkeley County🚨I-26 eastbound at the 190 mile marker is closed due to water on the roadway. Please expect delays across the tri-county area as water continues to flow to the low country. Please don’t drive around barricades. Remember standing water is deeper than it looks!

[Quintin Washington @QuintinOnCamera]

NEW- Roper St. Francis Healthcare has closed its Moncks Corner Medical Plaza due to rising flood waters.

#chsnews

[WCBD News 2 | Count on 2 @WCBD]

First light photos show flash flooding occurring now in portions of Berkeley County. Do not move or drive around barricades!
