Yes, there are waves along the South Carolina coast! Check online with www.surfline.com for up to the moment conditions. Typical surf is 4-6 feet, and year ‘round water temperature ranges from the high 40’s to the mid-80’s. Sometimes waves deliver on the action that you surfers crave; other times, not so much. On a note of caution, avoid sharks by staying away from schools of fish.

This 1861 seal, shown here with its original case, is something of a mystery at the Department of Archives and History. The case is marked Charleston, S. C. The department bought it in 1997 as an artifact, but no one knows who made it or why, nor how it relates to the state. If you have any sustainable ideas, contact South Carolina’s Department of Archives and History.

While an off-shore storm, such as this weekend’s Danny, can bring beautiful cloud and surf formations, rip currents are also an off-shoot of the weather elements in combination with each other. Respect those RED flags at the lifeguard stations and stay out of the surf if you see them. Storms are not for fear and dread, just respect and awe.
