? About Surfside Beach flood potential

[RatherBhuntin]

We have a rental on Surfside Beach this weekend. We are planning to go knowing it will most likely be just a rain event. My question is how easily does the beach area flood due to higher then normal tides. House is about 3 rows (houses) back from the beach. Should we be concerned with our vehicles being park at the house?

I don't have any specific knowledge of Surfside beach, but I doubt that it will be a problem.

I would be more concerned with the specific lot your rental sits on more than the beach tides. A lot of the homes within the village are low, especially if it has parking underneath it can hold a significant amount of water. I’d ask the management what the history is. Your always safe parking closer to the road if that’s the case.

No

Shouldn’t be a problem

I wouldn’t think it would be a problem. But the beach will probably inaccessible. Tides to the dunes and rough, full of current. That coupled with the rain, I would do my best to reschedule.

These storm tides can be pretty unpredictable. You'll probably be ok since they are not predicting big winds which would push a bunch of water in front of the storm, but still not sure I'd risk it since it's just going to rain a ton anyway.

Awesome, thanks for the responses.

We did try to reschedule, owner is being difficult. So we will just make the best of it

That’s kind of crappy under the circumstances. It does look like it will make landfall further south but you can probably still expect rain, high tides and rough surf. Without the beach Surfside don’t have much to offer.

My daughter has a house rented on Caney Creek for the next few days & went through the same thing. No refund or reschedule. They said they will make the best of it & have fun. We will be going down tomorrow & watch the rain with them. LOL!

I don’t know if Caney has recovered from the last time it flooded a few weeks ago. This weather has been nuts the last 5-6 years. We don’t get our rain spread out, it comes in bunches. Yesterday and the day before, combined 5” here at the house. I’m probably 8-10 miles from where their house will be. If we were in town this weekend if day let’s meet up at Hookers.

Yup, usually anything scheduled close to the water they have a disclaimer about storms... no refunds
