Historic Rains Deluge South Carolina

The National Weather Service is referring to the rains pounding the Carolinas as a “once in a 200 years rainfall event.” As much as a foot of rain fell overnight in the state, prompting power outages and several water rescues. According to the Associated Press, South Carolina could get more rain in three days than it usually does over the entire fall season. One person has been reported dead, a woman whose car was crushed by a tree while driving on the highway.
