South Carolina Prepares for Hurricanes

South Carolina just wrapped up a hurricane drill to test how well agencies and communities would respond to a major storm—especially as the Atlantic season kicks off with fewer predicted storms. Officials, including Governor McMaster, reviewed disaster scenarios like power outages and road closures, recalling the devastation of Hurricane Helene just two years ago. State Emergency Management Director Kim Stenson says the state is ready, but personal preparedness is critical—everyone must have a plan, know the risks, and act fast. Even with a quieter forecast, one storm could cause massive disruption, so now’s the time to prepare, especially if you live in a flood-prone area.
