BERKELEY COUNTY, S.C.—According to the National Weather Service, a flood warning remains in effect until 2:30 p.m. Tuesday for Charleston, Berkeley and Dorchester counties.
High water levels continue across much of the Tri-County area with many roads and homes still experiencing flooding.
The NWS reports that although little to no significant rainfall is expected through the rest of the week, water levels are expected to only slowly recede across regions that are already flooded.
River flooding will likely worsen for areas adjacent to the Edisto and Santee rivers and their adjacent tributaries over the coming days as river levels rise. Heed the advice of emergency officials if evacuations are ordered.
Excessive runoff from recent heavy rainfall is causing flooding of small creeks and streams as well as highways and underpasses in urban areas. Additionally, country roads and farmlands along the banks of creeks, streams and other low lying areas are subject to flooding.
Do not drive your vehicle into areas where the water covers the roadway. The water depth may be too great to allow your car to cross safely. Move to higher ground.
