Beach plans this weekend? Go for it, but keep in mind you may have to dodge a brief midday or early afternoon storm or downpour. #SCwx @WMBFnews

A decently strong storm is approaching the area. This is at hwy 31 and 544 moments ago by our chase team. Jamie Arnold WMBF Andrew Dockery Jace Passmore NWS Wilmington, NC #scwx

Lightning is the biggest risk from these summer storms. Check out the lightning strikes miles away from this storm coming into the south strand. It’s as simple as this - if you can hear thunder, you’re at a risk of lightning strikes. #SCwx WMBF News

Very heavy rainfall and gusty winds currently in #Socastee NWS Wilmington, NC Jamie Arnold WMBF

This is the summer of shelfies for sure. Almost daily this week! Great shot. #SCwx WMBF News

1:38 PM FRIDAY - This storm is not severe but dropping a ton of rain along with frequent lightning. The worst of it will stay just inland from the beaches as it quickly moves northeast through Horry County. Probably has a decent shelf cloud on it too. #SCwx WMBF News

It’s hauling. Can’t wait to see.

Tropical downpours out there today.

13 days into hurricane season and all is quiet across the Atlantic with no concerns for tropical development over the next 7 days. #SCwx @WMBFnews

Yea that lightning was no joke!

Pretty sure decent display of mammatus clouds over Myrtle Beach following those storms.

Reflecting some light from the setting sun. A beautiful glow.

No surprise here. All of our official observing site are running way ahead of normal rainfall for the first 15 days of the month. Again, these are the official sites with some areas picking up more than double these numbers. #SCwx @WMBFnews

Well, y'all wanted it to stop raining...#SCwx WMBF News
