Hurricane Joaquin has passed, but for those in South Carolina, the tragedy has just begun.
Billions of dollars in damage. Homes that have been washed away. Mandatory evacuations.
Massive rainfall and dam failures have led to catastrophic flooding statewide, and for those in The Palmetto State, the storm has yet to pass. On Thursday, South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley warned of more flooding to come.
Those from Louisiana know this feeling as well as anyone.
Among the communities affected has been Columbia, S.C., home of the South Carolina Gamecocks. The LSU Tigers are hosting the Gamecocks this weekend, after Saturday’s contest between the two teams was relocated to Baton Rouge earlier this week.
