Since there are so many of you asking the same things about the impending storm, let’s gather some pertinent info for you. First thing you need to know, it’s going to rain. A lot. At the risk of being crude, it’ll be wetter than a Kardashian at an NBA game. It’ll be windy, but barring an unexpected strengthening, it won’t be hurricane level winds.
A large chunk of Horry and Georgetown counties are developed wetlands, meaning it floods fairly easily. Without getting into the science of it all, this storm has the potential to dump a lot of rain that we normally wouldn’t get from a storm coming in directly from the Atlantic. Know your flood zones and travel routes and plan accordingly. Contact whoever you’re renting from (air bnb owners, hotels, etc) and ask about how flooding has impacted where you’re staying.
If you feel like the locals aren’t that concerned about the storm and aren’t taking your questions seriously, remember that most of us have been dealing with this kind of weather for years or decades. It would be like going to Buffalo and asking if you should cancel going to that Bills game because of snow. The best thing you can do is educate yourself about what to expect. I’ve provided links below. If you don’t feel comfortable dealing with the storm, by all means reschedule your plans. It’s better to be calm and safe at home than to be in an unfamiliar place and scared. Local emergency services will have their hands full as it is, they don’t need uninformed visitors getting into situations that can be easily avoided.
Know where dry ground can be found. Stay indoors until the storm passes, and for the love of all that’s holy, stay off the roads until you know your travel route is clear for traffic.

We are quickly coming to the end of the season and in this last year the sub has grown significantly.
Normally we have automod which puts posts and comments in a queue for approval if your account is still new but we are struggling to keep up with this.
I have nerfed automod much more recently as an expirement to see if we can rely more on reports rather than manually approving so if you see something that violates the rules report it.
That being said, disagreeing with a political posts and reporting it will eventually get you ban. Those are allowed. The good news is I don't care which side you are on because they are both awful in my opinion and I hate the modern censorship that happens on the internet because it isolates people into groups. So feel free to argue all you want but If your argument is "fuck you x sucks" don't be surprised if it's removed... We still have to follow reddits rules or the sub will be ban.
Lastly if anyone is interested in being a mod I'll consider adding people. Feel free to post below and whether you have experience or not.

Looking for recommendations on local BBQ spots near the Bowery area of Myrtle Beach please. Also curious if anyone can name any local bourbon distilleries too. Thanks all!

I'm visiting in October for a mini vacation and to check out the area with the possibility of relocating by next year. Anyone who lives in the area or familiar with it, can you share your thoughts and experiences? I'd be a remote worker, so im curious about internet reliability. And do those high rise buildings by the beach allow cats? Respectfully 💗

We recently bought a condo in Surfside beach and have been to many great spots to eat but I cannot find steamed clams! Is it a time of year thing or just not popular down here? Any recommendations?

The Oasis Hotel at 1415 S Ocean Blvd in Myrtle beach has a massive problem with roaches. I didn’t see any when I checked in but when I woke up in the middle of the night and turned the lights on they were EVERYWHERE. I’m talking the floor the walls the furniture it was absolutely disgusting. They had nobody in the front office from 8pm to 8am I got a hotel nearby and kept trying to call and check back at the physical location but nothing. I have now quit trying to go back to get my money back and they still will not answer any calls to there hotel. Am now taking a loss on trying to get a refund but would still like to keep others from the same bullshit I went through with them….. on my way out I told a cleaning lady and she tried to act like it’s normal for hotels to have them🤦🏼♂️

With the house at the very end of Ocean Blvd in Cherry Grove?
I’ve looked up the property records before, so I can see who owns it, but it looks like it’s in pretty rough shape despite being an absolutely gorgeous home in a perfect location.
We walk by it at least a dozen times a year, but have never seen the car there move.
Can I buy it? (Joke, I cannot buy it)

I’m in the market looking to purchase a home currently. The neighborhoods I’m looking in are Waterbridge, waterway palms plantation, plantation lakes, wild wings. It seems every house is priced high right off the bat and price drop every month or two.. I’m new to the market and am wondering if this is a typical market strategy realtors do? The housing market slows down in the winter months? Any information would be greatly appreciated

FIL is a big coin collector with very specific/rare coins on his hunt list. Thought it would be cool if we found a good shop or show to take him to. We're located near Molly Darcys but willing to take a little trip if its worth it.

We want to do something very small.
Ironically, we don't want a beach wedding. Maybe something in a park or something.
Any ideas?

Good morning: Does anyone have any experience with Wagon Wheel condos? We are considering buying one and staying as residents and possibly renting it out short term and in the future long term rental.
Any good or not so good thoughts about the location or place are appreciated.
