Today's riddle: Why did the fish blush ? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• When South Carolina Learned to Resist (dailysignal.com) — Charleston's streets and landmarks take center stage in this look back at how local protests against the Stamp Act evolved into a decade of organized resistance before the American Revolution. From effigies on Broad and Church to meetings under the Liberty Tree, the story traces how Charleston leaders like Christopher Gadsden helped South Carolina move from defiance of Parliament toward self-government.
• NWS issues severe thunderstorm warnings for Charleston, Berkeley, and Dorchester counties Sun. (counton2.com) — A severe thunderstorm warning is in effect this evening for Charleston County, with radar tracking a storm capable of 60 mph winds and quarter-sized hail. Areas including North Charleston, major interstates, and nearby towns may see damage to vehicles, roofs, trees, and power lines, so residents are urged to seek sturdy shelter, avoid flooded roads, and report damage when safe.
• Project To Consider Trans-Atlantic Nuclear-Powered Cargo Ships (eurasiareview.com) — The Port of Charleston is partnering with Maersk, Lloyd's Register, and the UK's Port of Felixstowe to study what it would take to host nuclear-powered container ships on a trans-Atlantic route. This "Pink Corridor" project will examine security, emergency response, regulations, and public acceptance, potentially shaping how future low-emission shipping traffic moves through Charleston's harbor.
