What the National Weather Service wrote

As part of a NWS Storm Survey, hail damage to the siding on a residence suggested hail up to the size of golf balls. The residence was impacted by a strong downburst as well. Time estimated by radar.

The wider storm

Several rare November supercells developed across South Carolina as a deep mid and upper level trough pushed across the southeast US. This trough interacted with anomalously high instability and a steep moisture gradient that helped enhance the wind fields to favor supercellular convection. Each of these supercells produced large hail and damaging winds during their lifetime in the central and western Midlands.

Began near Hope Station (34.2800, -81.3900).
