Flash flooding in the Greenville area!!!!!!!!!

#1 Postby jeff and shirens weather » Mon Mar 28, 2005 8:23 am

Last night brought one severe thunderstorm warning in Greenville county yesterday evening. The wedge held tight over the area and kept severe weather at a minimum. The severe thunderstorm that went through Greenville came through Pickens and dropped large hail. I do not know what size and I will try to find out. However we had heavy rains from 9:00 p.m. until 3:00 a.m. bringing rainfall between 3 and 4 inches of rain. My area recieved in that time frame 3.28 inches of rain. Most of that fell between 12:00 a.m. and 2:50 a.m. This caused widespread flash flooding in Greenville county. The reedy river and brushy creek are still under a flood warning until 9:00 a.m. and other adjacent locations. Hopefully people heeded the warnings and moved to higher ground. Scattered thunderstorms are expected today as the front approaches from our west this morning possibly causing more problems. Temperatures held in the low 50s overnight. Hendersonville, and other areas out to my west also flooded. Down the road from where I live the creek that runs int the reedy river has overflowed its banks and has not receded. Luckily its way back in the woods and only overflows onto my road and not no houses. Does anybody have any severe reports to my south? Got to go for now.

Take care Jeff!!

Had 2 severe thunderstorm warnings this morning...one to my south and another to my east.

Another round of potentially severe thunderstorms later today between noon and 6 pm ET for here!

Several reports of 1.50 and 1.75 hail this morning around Raleigh!

Nice squall line developed this morning but nothing severe here. Very heavy rainfalls though in a short period of time pushed storm totals well over 3" here since Sunday.

Most of the Lowcountry received anywhere between 2"-4" of rain during this latest storm system, but SVR was at a minimum. CHS recorded 2.4" of rain yesterday which is a daily record maximum for 3/27.
