Greenville, South Carolina – Up to 2.22 inches of rain fell across parts of the Upstate, prompting ponding and localized travel slowdowns.
According to the National Weather Service Greenville-Spartanburg office, rainfall totals were measured over the 24-hour period ending at 7 a.m. Monday. The highest totals were recorded in eastern portions of Greenville and Spartanburg counties, with widespread reports between 1 and 2 inches.
Several areas near Interstate 85, Interstate 26, and U.S. 29 reported totals exceeding 1.5 inches. A corridor stretching from central Greenville County into Union County showed rainfall amounts ranging from 1.75 to 2.22 inches. Other parts of Anderson, Cherokee, and Pickens counties generally received between 0.75 and 1.5 inches.
The rainfall contributed to brief ponding on low-lying roads and minor drainage overflow in some neighborhoods. No major flooding was reported as of Monday morning.
The National Weather Service noted the data reflects cooperative observer stations, automated surface observing systems, and mesonet sites across the region. Totals represent measured rainfall and may not capture isolated higher amounts between reporting points.
While the rainfall was welcomed in some areas experiencing dry conditions, drivers encountered wet pavement during the Monday morning commute along major Upstate corridors.
Officials continue to monitor river and stream levels, though no flood advisories were issued in conjunction with this rainfall event.
