The SC-NC low country has long been a "ground zero" for violent tornadic activity. Perfect conditions during Spring and early Summer......flat terrain, warm moist air masses from both the Atlantic and the Gulf, plenty of cold fronts riding high on the jet stream. I remember the 1984 Super Outbreak that produced several strong F4s in Bennettsville, SC , and Red Springs, Mt Olive, and Greenville, NC. The Red Springs twister was somewhat like what happened in Greensburg, KS. Total devastation.
@Lex5576 and let's not forget Lancaster County got slammed as well. Fortunately enough (as far as SC is concerned) that storm was somewhat of an oddity

I think with all the hit and misses that us in darlington get we should be better prepared for this. I lived in the forest creek park on mciver road and by the time we got the warning that it was in oats,it was already at my house. With all that was going on the police and fire dept. was on different pages while police was getting drivers off main street onto side streets. The fire dept. Was getting people off side streets onto main street
my friends grandmother's house was torn away bye this tornado her house was one of the few that was hit and i was their when it happend 2. preaty scary to see live much diffrent when ur watching from a computer screen to when some one could be look up at it live.
I haven't seen a Tornado in SC in the year of 07 or 08 when i was going to Sumter and Me and my mom almost got in it but luckily we didn't

This tornado knocked the windows out of my Aunt and Uncle's brand new car while they were driving. Nice camera and nice footage.
