While you’re gearing up for this burger-filled fun, let’s not overlook some other happenings in our vibrant city. Forecasters are predicting that a storm brewing in the Gulf of Mexico could be headed our way. Dubbed Hurricane Helene, meteorologists warn that this storm could make an impact in South Carolina shortly, especially after it lashes Florida’s West Coast.
According to specialists, it could develop into a Category 3 hurricane, which means that folks along the coast should keep a close watch. Though projections show the storm swirling through Florida and Georgia, there’s still a chance it could veer towards western or central parts of South Carolina. The forecast indicates we could see about 2 to 3 inches of rain across the Lowcountry, so now would be a good time to prepare.
On a lighter note, local community members are encouraged to stay engaged with what’s happening around the city. There are important elections coming up, including a chance for voters to reshape the Charleston County School District Board with a whopping ten candidates vying for four open seats. This election might just be the opportunity for change that many in the community have been hoping for!
Charleston’s arts scene is blossoming too! A recent collaboration among three South Carolina arts organizations presented a comprehensive assessment of the Hispanic/LatinX arts scene, showcasing the vibrant culture within our community. This was celebrated at an event at the Gibbes Museum in downtown Charleston. It’s an exciting time to recognize and appreciate the diverse influences that shape our local arts!
And let’s not forget Halloween is just around the corner! Get ready for some spooky fun with Charleston Terrors, one of the Top 10 Ghost Tours in the U.S. They will be launching spine-tingling ghost tours and chilling pub crawls, so grab your friends and get ready to explore the darker side of Charleston’s rich history.
If you’re planning a wedding or special event, prepare to say “I do” at the new The Waverly venue that’s in the works at 94 Stuart Street. This location, which was previously home to the Baker and Brewer restaurant, will soon transform into a stunning space for celebrations. It’s another promising addition that further enriches Charleston’s East Side neighborhood.
So, whether you’re biting into a burger or prepping for the storm ahead, Charleston is buzzing with activity. Don’t forget to vote for your favorite burger and stay informed on the latest news. Remember, it’s a community effort to keep Charleston thriving!
