A "1,000-year rainfall" means that the amount of rainfall in South Carolina has a 1-in-1,000 chance of happening in any given year, CNN meteorologist Taylor Ward said.
At least 600 National Guardsmen, 11 aircraft and eight swift water rescue teams are taking part in search-and-rescue efforts, the governor said Sunday. More than 200 water rescues took place in the state from Saturday night to Sunday afternoon, the state's emergency management agency said.
And it's not over yet.
The National Weather Service forecast "catastrophic flash flooding" into Monday in Berkeley County, where more than 18 inches of rain had fallen in 24 hours.
