As of 5:15 pm, radar is lighting up and poised to become quite an active day and evening for Lower and Middle South Carolina ... below is a 2 hour radar loop...(24 frame loop - twice as long as the weather.noaa.gov site)

Back up and online again, as the seabreeze boundary and an outflow boundary developed a new storm with the first initial lightning strike pretty much right over the house. (Much like watching the Baltimore/Boston game on Sunday).
Not having emptied the rain gauge just yet, looks like rainfalls in a little less than an hour have tabulated between 1½"-2" of rainfall which have produced some localized flooding.
