The announcement to prepare for 3-4 days without water has me worried. 


Fill up your tub with water now. Enough for a few days worth of hand bathing.

I never thought I'd be happy to be on a well.

This is why no one should live on the coast. Everyone should be huddled into middle America.

Tornadoes are PC. The coast isn't. Did you even Katrina?

The kids in the water around the U.S.S. NC are weird. Everyone locally knows that there are gators in the water there, the ship is permanently moored in the river.

Who cares if it affects LSUs schedule.

This is way way more important.

I care. I am actually able to be sympathetic and care about the football game at the same time.

The game should not be affected, the coach indicated. The Tigers and Gamecocks meet at 11 a.m. CT Saturday. South Carolina announced Sunday that campus would be closed Monday.

Coaches arrived at Williams-Brice Stadium on Sunday morning to review game film. At about 10:30 p.m. CT, they were told to leave. The stadium is located near the Congaree River, which runs along side the campus and downtown Columbia.

“We were advised to leave the stadium and try to get home,” the coach said. “Most of the coaches … one or two defensive coaches were there when I left. They were advised to get out.”

Shawn Elliott, South Carolina’s co-offensive coordinator and offensive line coach, lives near a creek that has swelled. Elliott is the only known member of the team or staff closely affected by the flooding, Spurrier said.

The National Weather Services reported that the river gauge at the creek – Gills Creek – was “swept away” over the weekend.

People who have spent hundreds of dollars on hotels, flights, tickets, etc to go there.

I have the rare ability to both be concerned for other people's safety and try to stay informed on whether I need to cancel my shite and save myself hundreds of dollars.
