Greeleyville, the town this property stands in, in 18 storm reports between 1999 and 2019: 8 hail, 6 thunderstorm wind, 1 heavy rain, 1 flash flood.
No death or injury is recorded in these reports. 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.
Heavy rains associated with the remnants of Tropical Storm Gaston amounted to around 10 inches in about 3 to 4 hours over western Williamsburg County. This resulted in widespread road closures across western portions of the county.
Widespread tree and power line damage was reported along Highway 521 from near Greeleyville to Trio Road. The time of the damage was estimated based on radar data.
