What A Weekend…
Well…what else can you say! It was a wild weekend for the Lowcountry and after it was all over and done, we could look back a say that we nailed the forecast. When you start talking snow, especially significant snow for the coast people either pay attention or say you are crazy and believe me, if you saw my email inbox you would get a good example of both! But that being said, most folks took the forecast in stride and took the advice and got off the roads once the snow began to fall. The National Weather Service office here in Charleston put together a great map that shows who got what from ol’ man winter:
From what I can tell, everyone in the Live 5 viewing area did get some snow on the ground. I wound up with a tad over 4″ at my home in West Ashley. Thanks to everyone who sent us pictures, videos and storm reports. They really helped us keep up with where the best totals were shaping up. We could not have done it with out all our great viewers! The response we had on our Facebook and Twitter feeds was fantastic. As of this morning we have had more than 1600 pics submitted to our my5@live5news.com photo and video feed. If you still have some cool pics, send them to us. Click the link to the left to log on and send them to us.
Again…from Bill, Brad and I…Thanks for choosing Live 5 to keep you informed as the storm rolled in!
Have a great Monday and get ready for a few showers!
