Down to 996 mb inland over N FL (Cross City). Gainesville 998 mb with ~5” of rainfall with still heavy showers in the area! That 998 mb ~ties their record low for Dec.
 

It rained here all night.

Edit: power out here since 9:45AM due to persistent gusty winds of ~40 mph. Power returned just over an hour later.

 Winds now picking up perhaps a little higher on backside of low with cold air advection. Will have to watch for potential additional outage.

 KSAV 11AM SLP 29.49”/999 mb, possibly near to bottoming out

Record low Dec SLP ~29.35”/994 mb

Edit: KSAV 2PM SLP 29.41”/996 mb

That area Myrtle Beach-Wilmington needs to be vigilant for tornadoes with this band moving through. Lots of areas showing broad rotation and there’s a lot of energy with that band

Moments later: confirmed tornado in Myrtle beach moving NE. Debris signature clear on radar

I posted in the wrong forum earlier. I live in Mcclellanville and we were under that trailing band most of the day. I ended up at 15.9” since 10:00 last night when it started. This was measured on an accurite digital rain gauge and other people in the area reporting around the same. Absolutely unreal. Very thankful high tide was at 11:45. Freshwater flooding has washed out a lot of the backroads. Almost zero wind from 9am on until now. Starting to get blustery so hoping no trees fall

 If any of the McClellanville reports are official, they’d almost have to be alltime SC Dec records by a big margin. That’s insane!

 The Savannah area ended up with 3.5-5”, easily the biggest 24 hour rain in a very long time! And it lasted a full 24. I wonder when we last got that much in Dec.

 This storm will not be soon forgotten!
