For Columbia it ranges from all rain, to a massive ice storm with .75 inches+ of ICE, to a dusting of snow. Ice storm is what NO ONE wants. I was 3yo the last time we had a really bad one.

Roger that re: ice storms. I've lost power for up to a week over the years. The electrical lines in my neighborhood in GVegas were recently buried, a process that took slightly less time than the construction of the Pyramids of Egypt.
Bring it Mother Nature. We're ready for your ###.

1300 homes. We lost electricity maybe 30 minutes the entire decade there. Took someone hitting a phone pole on the main road though. They fixed it in a half hour and that was the only time.

looks like TWC has between 8 and 13 inches in Clemson area.
I'm alredy planning for my power to be out for 3-4 days, because some of this will be ice. Pretty much par for the course around here.
