CONWAY, S.C. (WMBF) - The water along Waccamaw Lake Drive is only going to get higher over the next few days.
The Waccamaw River near Conway is forecasted to crest at 14.5 feet by Wednesday, and it’s just enough to make neighbor Mitchell Finney consider moving.
“We’re learning to live with it,” said Finney.
Finney said in the almost two years of living in the neighborhood, he’s gotten the flooding routine down. Everything from moving his car up the street to dry land and putting on his waders to get out of the neighborhood to go to the grocery store.
