CSRA News: Weather Damage from Last Week’s Storms
Officials say severe storms that moved across South Carolina earlier this week caused at least 13 tornadoes and hail the size of baseballs.
The South Carolina Emergency Management Division says 14 homes were destroyed as the twisters moved through Tuesday in Allendale, Bamberg, Clarendon and Orangeburg counties. Another five homes were damaged by a storm that dropped baseball size hail in Horry County. The strongest tornado had winds of at least 160 mph and moved through Allendale, Bamberg and Orangeburg counties. Other twisters were reported in Aiken, Lexington, Calhoun, Colleton, Hampton, Dorchester and Clarendon counties.
