Thanks to Walmart on James Island and chascountygov charlestoncountypublicsafety charlestoncountyecc for an excellent Hurricane Expo! Love the opportunity to have all of your Hurricane questions answered in one location! Thanks for the invite to close out the opening ceremonies
Thanks @KatiesKrops for a fun Weather Talk in the garden! We discussed weather safety during the summer…specifically drinking lots of water, and when thunder roars, go indoors! We also had a blast blowing into the anemometer! Jordan blew more than 50 miles an hour!!!
