...NWS Storm Survey Findings from Anderson and Laurens Counties
South Carolina...

The National Weather Service office in Greenville-Spartanburg SC
has completed a storm survey in Anderson and Laurens counties of
South Carolina. The survey is in relation to the severe storms
that moved through the area Wednesday evening, May 8, 2024.

The survey team began in Anderson County, traveling a path
including Northlake, Anderson, Belton, and Princeton. The team
found evidence only of straight-line winds, with peak intensity of
75 mph in downtown Anderson, where minor structural damage
occurred to a building. Numerous trees were on houses. This damage
was all west of US Highway 25 and extended into far western
Laurens County.

The team picked up the survey again near US Highway 221 north of
Waterloo in Laurens County, traveling generally southeast to near
Mountville and Cross Hill. The observed damage was not along a
clear path indicative of a tornado, so this too was attributed to
straight-line winds of less than 75 mph. The survey ended before
the team reached the Newberry County line.
