Prophetic? Perhaps. Historic…you bet. South Carolina is about to be slammed by a once in 200 year rainfall event, few will be prepared for.
About 22 million Americans along the East Coast were under flood watches Saturday as a “once in 200 years rainfall event” began hammering the Carolinas with heavy rains — and the worst was yet to come.
South Carolina could get more rain in three days than it normally does during the entire fall, The Associated Press reported. Saturday was the third consecutive day of a relentless onslaught of rain, with a plume of precipitation expected to last through the weekend and only begin to taper off Monday.
Waterlogged Charleston, South Carolina, received 6 inches of rain over a period of 12 to 18 hours, NBC News meteorologist Bill Karins said on MSNBC, adding that people there were paddleboarding through the city. Flash flood warnings were issued for downtown Charleston.
