2.6" of rain since midnight here in Tigerville. We got almost 3/4" yesterday. We haven't had the A/C on yet, but our house is super insulated. I open the windows at night, then close them in the morning to keep the 'coolth' in. Most years, we cut the A/C on sometime in May.
My gardens are loving the weather, except for the okra, which loves the heat. It's growing... slowly.
Yup! Ive watch 3 forecast, and all 3 call for more rain in the upstate than the counties where theres flood watches! I dont see how these "forecasters" live with themselves. Ill believe it when I see it.
Little River Park in Laurens became Big River Park and they closed it.
Im real surprised the guessers actually got this right. That park is known to flood.
Does the Laurens Plaza still flood? I was considering a business there some years ago, but one of those buildings had flooded in the past. They were considering some flood control measures but I don't know if anything was changed.

Theres been some very minor flooding, but nothing like in the past.I think it was 76, 77 somewhere arund then.

I thought it was later than that? I remember it flooding.. And it seems it was Food Lion that was over there and after it flooded, they moved across the street and Winn Dixie revamped or rebuilt and moved in there?

This was in the late 70s. After WD moved, it sat vacant for years. Originally Food Lion was where the courthouse is now, that and Roses, Eckerds and Pic-N-Pay. Foodlion remodeled the old WD, and them eventually moved out and Roses Express moved it. Im not sure on the timelines on all of that, but I do know the last BIG flood was in the late 70s, and there has been minor flooding even after flood control means were put in place.
Just randomly dropping in to say that as a TX transplant, this summer has been a 100% dream. We had maybe ONE day of 95-97 degree temps here in TR. We have hiked and biked and taken evening walks and enjoyed being outside.
Some are saying it was a hotter than normal summer.
Some are saying it was milder than normal?
IDK but it was lovely for us.
