| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | Colin first developed as a Tropical Depression just north of the Yucatan Peninsula on Sunday June 5th in the Gulf of Mexico. The system then tracked in a general north/northwest direction and strengthened into a Tropical Storm. Colin made landfall as a Tropical Storm during the night of June 6th near Keaton Beach, Florida before continuing northeast over northern Florida and then exiting off the southeast Georgia coast near Brunswick, Georgia during early morning hours on June 7th. The main impact from Colin was torrential rainfall across portions of southeast South Carolina and southeast Georgia. Storm total rainfall amounts between 3 to 4.25 inches generally occurred in many areas and resulted in flash flooding. Heavy rains along with high astronomical tides also produced approximately a 1 to 1.5 ft storm surge across coastal areas before the Tropical Storm shifted offshore and to the northeast. |

At 9:42 PM a maximum tide level of 7.56 feet mean lower low water was recorded at the Charleston Harbor tide gage. A surge of 1.28 feet was also present at the time of the maximum tide level. |
