How bad is the flooding now

Pretty sure all the flood water in the Midlands has receded. I'm not sure about the low country.

My uncle lives in Mt. Pleasant and said he didn't have any flooding at all which I found surprising.

coastal side of 17 saw localized incidents in different areas. thankfully, things are pretty much business as usual in MTP. Cainhoy/Huger and 41 way...those folks are still hurting bad, especially Huger. McClellanville towards Jamestown also affected.

James/Johns saw certain areas get hit but nothing like the back side of West Ashley (Shadowmoss Plantation) out 61 to Summerville and over to areas of Goose Creek. there were many homes that were completely flooded. Wadmalaw has a few issues still. Ravenel/Adams Run and Jacksonboro are getting hit now with flooding along the Edisto.

the Santee (N Fork / S Fork) up on the Georgetown Co line isn't expected to crest until early next week. additional flooding could see standing water for over a week along that waterway if Lake Marion spills over into the Santee. I would also guess anyone along the Lynches or Waccamaw near Conway will see inevitable flooding as well.

Georgetown, Williamsburg and Clarendon took severe hits on seconday roads with complete washouts and bridges. will be awhile before things remotely look/are normal through those areas.

Sumter and Richland counties likely hit the hardest and have the biggest challenges ahead.

saw this earlier today --

Haley said she also saw the damage done to the state's agriculture industry, where officials are estimating $300 million in crop losses on farms that resemble 1,000 lakes.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency said it had amended the disaster declaration for the recent flooding to make survivors in Calhoun, Darlington, Florence, Kershaw and Lee counties eligible for its individual assistance program.

Those five join a list that already included Charleston, Berkeley, Dorchester, Williamsburg, Georgetown, Horry, Lexington, Orangeburg, Richland, Sumter and Clarendon counties.
