Blackout Hits Berkeley Charleston | Charleston News
Description
A major power outage hit Berkeley and Charleston counties, leaving over 20,000 customers without electricity for about an hour—mostly due to a transmission line failure near Rifle Range Road. Traffic lights went dark north of the Isle of Palms Connector, forcing police to manually direct traffic. While power is restored and the issue is resolved, the blackout exposed just how dependent we are on electricity for safety and daily life, requiring swift emergency response to keep things running.
