Currently, the projected track of Hurricane Florence finds a diminished version of the storm passing almost directly over Anderson.
Florence made landfall Friday, but the storm has only just begun for the Carolinas. Beyond Friday’s torrential rain, multi-foot storm surge and widespread power outages, Florence will continue to batter the region through early next week. The storm’s winds will slowly weaken, but some of its most devastating effects may be yet to come.

Through the weekend, the massive storm — containing a zone of tropical-storm-force winds nearly 400 miles wide — will drift inland, engulfing much of South Carolina and southern North Carolina.
