If was, at bare minimum, a category 2 hurricane once it reached the upstate of SC. I watched mature oak trees bend over during this storm. This is the fastest moving hurricane I have ever witnessed. I will not believe the lie that it was merely a "Tropical Storm". We have had many in the past, nothing like this.

Most of the time, it's a slow moving, soaking rain that had occasional wind gusts that could reach 60mph or so. Not safe to be out in, but nothing that would cause almost 100% power outages in counties. Something is definitely not what it seems.

Why were most of our resources sent to Florida? Why not better preparations beforehand? If these people can predict landfall of a hurricane weeks out, what stops them from giving a higher warning level? You can't prepare emergency service this way.

Feel free to add any additional context or opinions. A lot to question here and many things already brought up.
