Tuesday night (starting around 4-5 PM) our area got .25 to 1 inch of snow. The snow ended by midnight if not before. It did not turn to rain or sleet. Wednesday morning the roads were clear - but never were icy. The snow was powdery, so it just blew around the roads.
Tuesday one of the colleges I teach closed their campus at 6PM on Tuesday shifted to remote learning for evening classes.
Wednesday morning (note the roads are very clear) both colleges closed their campuses ("due to an abundance of caution) and had a "remote learning day".
Everything in our town (bank, dr office) except the Dollar General and the Hardware store were closed on Wednesday.
Here it is on Thursday, the colleges are open, but the local bank is delayed opening and the pharmacy and doctor offices also have delayed openings.
It is CRAZY! Less than an inch of powdery snow with no ice and the whole area shuts down for 2.5 - 3 days.
I understand in Conway they had 6 inches of snow. For South Carolina, this is pretty major. But come on - let than an inch of powdery snow during the evening and night and we shut down everything?
Oremus pro invicem!
