ALT Graphic highlighting the October 4, 2015, historic flooding across the Carolinas. A slow-moving storm combined with moisture from Hurricane Joaquin to produce excessive rainfall from October 3–4, resulting in widespread flash flooding across South Carolina, particularly the Columbia metro area. The photo shows a roadway washed away by floodwaters.

ALT Water vapor satellite imagery showing the atmospheric setup during the October 2015 Carolinas flood event.
