Kingstree, the town this property stands in, in 35 storm reports between 1995 and 2017: 15 hail, 14 thunderstorm wind, 2 tornado, 2 flood.
The reports record 15 injuries. Each account below is quoted exactly as the forecast office
filed it, from the NOAA Storm Events Database, and each date
opens the federal record of that event.
A NWS storm survey concluded a downburst rolled a manufactured home (that was not tied down) 75 feet over a car and into a ditch. Four people were in the home and were treated for minor injuries.
Around 10 to 15 inches of rain fell over a three day period, causing the Black River at Kingstree to rise to a major flood. The river crested at 22.65 feet, beating the previous record crest in 1973 by nearly three feet. Several hundred homes were evacuated due to inundation. The town of Quinby had moderate flooding.
A storm survey concluded straight line winds peeled back the roofing on three small and open hangers. A small Cesna plane was tipped onto one wing. A cotton trailer was overturned. Trees were also blown down.
Trees and power lines were reported down along Red Road. The report was relayed via South Carolina Department of Transportation and Santee Electric Cooperative.
