South Carolina BS thread under new MANAGEMENT and lives in SC

I actually like a descent waffle house. The coffee is good too!

 

When will this hit Chas? What is local news saying about flooding, winds, time line, etc?

 

Tropical force expected to start around Tuesday night.

 

Low tide has been higher than normal high tide for the last few days. Should be interesting with the king tide this week.

 

Hopefully the storm will speed by, less intense.

 

We were out in the boat last night in Bohicket and the current was absolutely ripping through. Was pretty nuts.

 

Wow! And this is supposed to happen with a King tide?

Hopefully something changes.

 

Yea it seems like these hurricanes are all coming at us on Kings tides. I think the last one was scheduled for a long time too.

 

How’s everything going down here? I saw the evac notice for the coast. Hang in there. I hope it moves further off shore.

 

Just saw they called for mandatory evacuation for zones A,B and C for the Charleston central coast areas! @ 12:30 on Monday @dan0mite @scottalot @jpneely get those kayaks and life jackets out and handy!!

 

They said there were small islands that are no longer there.

 

Amen. Cooking today?

 

Mayor passed that mandatory evac for coastal zones. If you live inland, you should be good.

It’s “mandatory” for everybody pretty much from cottageville/ridgeville/moncks corner to the coast in Charleston...so depends on how you define “inland”. I think most people above N. Charleston consider themselves inland.

 

Heard that. I have a couple of eye of rounds ready to hit the smoke shortly. Only a 4-5 hour cook, hopefully. Planning on a late lunch when the girls get back from shopping in Commerce. Gotta get the big girl some work clothes to start her new job in Mt P in a couple of weeks.

 

I've always based coastal zones based on the zone map, or roughly 15 to 20 miles from the coast. I believe Nor Chas falls in the inland zones. Based on: https://www.scemd.org/prepare/know-your-zone/ I would consider zones D and E to be "Inland". Those are Dorchester county. But unfortunately, the Mayor wants the D to evaculate as well so you can expect heavy pressure around there with emphasis on the tip and down around the base of the shaft closest to Ashley.

I've got my snorkel cleaned up and ready to roll! I'm sitting in zone A

 

Going to try a little surfy surf?
