Power being restored after South Carolina storms
· AP State
Updated 05/12/08 - 5:15 PM | South Carolina Electric & Gas Company had about 60 customers without power Monday afternoon. Duke Energy reports about 70 outages. Forecasters are trying to determine if it was a tornado that damaged about a half-dozen houses and forced the closure of about four miles of Maybank Highway on Wadmalaw Island for a time Sunday just south of Charleston. The National Weather Service and local emergency officials say the damage was minor and no injuries were reported. The storms stranded a dozen boaters and campers in the Lowcountry who had to be rescued by state and local officials.
