What the National Weather Service wrote

Aiken Dispatch reported trees down on Nantuckett Rd in Salley.

The wider storm

An upper trough moved into the Southeast, acting as the main forcing in a strongly unstable environment with weak deep layer shear and high PWAT's. This forcing led to the development of scattered strong to severe convection that moved slowly due to the weak steering flow. The slow moving nature and efficient rainfall from these storms led to an area of flash flooding in Lancaster County, SC.

Began near Perry (33.6583, -81.2415).
