Storm Leaves Light Snow in Parts of South Carolina
A major snowstorm forecast for parts of South Carolina fizzled to a dusting in most areas. Isolated totals reached up to five inches in Greenville and Spartanburg counties, while Florence and Darlington counties saw about two inches. No power outages were reported as roads saw few incidents and salt trucks stayed idle. Forecasters had warned of up to eight inches, but a weakened western system and a farther north coast cyclone reduced the storm’s impact. Emergency officials had prepared, but the event ended as a drill rather than a crippling winter event.
