Abstract
The historic heavy rainfall event of October, 2015 produced record rainfall rates and rainfall totals in South Carolina. The rainfall amounts and distributions across the state were similar in pattern to those normally produced by hurricanes making landfall. The five-day October historic rainfall event and subsequent catastrophic flooding occurred a week after an extended period of state-wide rain from September 24th until the 29th.
