Early Coastal Storm Disrupts South Carolina Travel
A coastal storm brought rain and an early snowfall across parts of South Carolina, causing minor flooding in Chesterfield and Lancaster counties and delaying Thanksgiving travel on Interstate 95. Columbia logged a record 1.4 inches of rain for Tuesday, while Charleston saw the season's earliest snow and gusts up to 44 mph knocked out power to several thousand customers before most outages were restored. Motorists were urged to slow down and allow extra travel time as weather slowly improved.
