Snow flurries right now at Folly Beach! https://www.tidesfollybeach.com/surf-cam/

60% of Charleston County customers out of power currently, 48% in Dorchester County, 37 in Berkeley.

Local stations here in Charleston surprisingly haven’t even started doing continuous coverage yet for the storm, even though we’re under 12 hours away from most of the immediate metro area potentially getting 80-100 mph wind gusts. 

Only Channel 5 is even running hourly updates. Figuring this is because of the late-night pass, but there’s been storms before where they started doing almost continuous coverage at least a day out. 

Queens University. 

It is 48 here in Charleston with rain.

Flurries showing up all over the Pee Dee and part of the Midlands. Including Hartsville. Dusting of snow there

Did they mention anything about duration?  I'm guessing it'd be only an hour or two of snow, if it did come fruition.  If it's an ULL, then one never knows how it'll transpire.

Watching 2 different stations in-house models (WCBD one of them), and both show snow coming through the CAE area around 6-7pm Monday, eventually heading toward the inland counties like Orangeburg, maybe northern Dorchester.

No high school football in Charlotte or Raleigh tonight because of the storm. 

TS Warning just posted for most of the NC counties in GSP’s service area (including Mecklenburg)

Here in CHS we still had gusts 50+. Some close to 60. There was a 57 mph gust at the Folly pier. You guys are getting flooding rains in addition to the wind.

The Charleston area south of I-26 has basically had almost no real effects from this storm. Some 45 mph wind gusts, a few power outages, a very small amount of rain (maybe 1/4” or so). Incredible the difference here and 50-60 miles away in Georgetown.

Channel 5 here in Charleston is showing coverage from WECT, their sister station in Wilmington. This is kind of interesting to see. 

WCTI (ABC in Eastern NC, based in New Bern) has evacuated due to the high water of the Neuse River. Their sister station in Myrtle Beach (WPDE) is picking up coverage.

Marshall-South Carolina game Saturday night cancelled because of the storm.

SC Governor McMaster says over 300K have evacuated SC coast so far.

Yup. That setup would be the worst since Hugo for the SC coast. 

Mandatory evacuation order is rescinded for Jasper, Beaufort, and Colleton Counties (except for Edisto Beach in Colleton County).

All of the Walmarts in the Charleston area are closing at midnight tonight and are not opening till the storm passes. 

Mandatory evacuation order for SC coast will be issued at 2:30 press conference by McMaster. Schools will be closed in most of SC starting tomorrow.
