Abstract
South Carolina found itself in the path of a major weather event on February 11th. The winter storm carried heavy precipitation and cold temperatures which straddled the freezing mark. Rain, snow, and ice fell on most of the state, with the latter two forms of precipitation taking a heavy toll on South Carolina’s forests. Ice and snow damage to timber is estimated at $360 million.
