Matthew first developed into a Tropical Storm about 35 miles southeast of St. Lucia on September 28 before quickly strengthening into a powerful hurricane as it tracked westward across the Caribbean Sea. Matthew then became a hurricane about 190 miles northeast of Curacao on September 29th before reaching Category 5 strength the following day. Matthew then weakened slightly while turning north toward the Greater Antilles, remaining a Category 4 hurricane as it made landfall over Haiti���s Tiburon Peninsula early on October 4th. Matthew then continued north while maintaining a Category 4 strength before making a second landfall near the Guantanamo Province in Cuba later that day. Land interaction helped reduce the strength of Matthew to a Category 3 hurricane, before it re-intensified into a Category 4 hurricane while tracking northwest toward the Bahamas. Matthew then tracked about 25 miles west of Nassau before making  landfall for a 3rd time over Grand Bahama about 15 miles west-northwest of Freeport as a Category 4 hurricane on October 6th. Matthew then continued on a north-northwest track toward Florida before paralleling much of the Southeast coast in a slowly weakening state over the next couple days. Matthew tracked parallel to the northern half of the Southeast Georgia coast as a Category 2 hurricane (110 mph), before continuing to weaken to a Category 1 hurricane (85 mph) while passing much of the lower Southeast South Carolina coast. Minimum surface pressures of 983.1 mb at Savannah International Airport (KSAV), 980.6 mb at Beaufort Airport (KNBC) and 981.7 mb at Charleston International Airport (KCHS) where recorded as Matthew passed just offshore. Matthew then made its 4th and final landfall as a weak Category 1 hurricane (75 mph) near McClellanville, SC at approximately 1045 AM on October 8th. Matthew then re-emerged into the western Atlantic shortly after, briefly maintaining hurricane strength before transitioning into an extratropical cyclone on October 9th as it pulled away from Cape Hatteras, North Carolina.
Across southeast Georgia and southeast South Carolina, the main impacts from Matthew included heavy rain, wind damage in the form of scattered to widespread trees and power lines blown down and storm surge, specifically along coastal locations from Tybee Island, GA north to Edisto Beach, SC. Storm total rainfall amounts generally ranged from 4.5 to 7 inches across western areas of Southeast Georgia and extreme western locations of Southeast South Carolina to 8 to 17 inches closer to the coast, highest in coastal counties of Southeast Georgia and the lower Southeast South Carolina coast. A peak storm total rainfall of 17.49 inches was recorded at Hunter Army Airfield in Georgia while a peak storm total rainfall of 16.90 inches was recorded near Edisto Island, SC. Daily record rainfall totals of were also set on October 7th and October 8th at the Savannah International Airport (KSAV), 4.36 inches and 3.84 inches, at the Charleston International Airport (KCHS), 4.7 inches and 5.77 inches and in downtown Charleston (KCXM), 4.36 inches and 3.84 inches respectively. Heavy rains also led to several instances of flash flooding with damage to roads and homes and helped produce long duration flooding along the Edisto River, Ashley River and Santee River. Wind damage produced numerous to widespread power outages and damage to homes and other structures throughout the area, most significantly at locations near the coast where 60 mph to 100 mph wind gusts occurred with rainbands surrounding the passing eye wall. On October 8th, a maximum sustained wind of 75 mph and peak wind gust of 96 mph was recorded at the Tybee Island South sensor (XTYE) in Georgia while a maximum sustained wind of 67 mph was recorded at the Beaufort (XBUF) sensor in South Carolina and peak wind gust of 87 mph was recorded at the Hilton Head Airport (KHXD) sensor in South Carolina. Three deaths and 1 injury occurred from trees falling on homes or cars in Southeast Georgia.  The most extensive damage came with storm surge during Matthew. The entire Southeast Georgia and Southeast South Carolina coast was impacted by storm surge generally ranging between 2 to 5 ft with some locations as high as 6 to 8 ft. A peak surge of 7.69 ft occurred at the Fort Pulaski tide gauge at 248 AM October 8th while a peak surge of 6.20 ft occurred at the Charleston Harbor tide gauge at 5 AM October 8th. Damage from surge was most notable on the northern ends of Tybee Island in Georgia, Fripp Island in South Carolina and Edisto Island in South Carolina. Locations on Fripp Island and Edisto Island saw some of the most significant beach erosion and damage to oceanfront homes in the entire area.

Reported by: NWS Storm Survey

A Hurricane Matthew NWS storm survey found evidence of inundation along/over U.S. Route 21 at numerous locations, including salt water just south of the Beaufort County Airport to the Harbor River Bridge. Eight boats were driven aground along the north side of U.S. 21. Salt water inundation at the Beaufort County Airport resulted in 4 boats driven onto or along the runway, likely from Dataw Island Marina. Approximately 1 foot of water went into the hangars on the runway during the storm and about 2 ft of water inundation occurred in the parking lot where 6 to 8 cars were damaged. A debris line indicated that the Harbor River pushed over a rock wall and inundated the area. Measurements suggested that the storm surge reached approximately 4 feet at this location.
The Dataw Island Marina docks on Jenkins Creek were destroyed. Evidence of storm surge and inundation included several boats and much debris driven aground along the south shore of the creek. The south side/northbound lane of Harbor Island Bridge was washed out by surge and the bridge/all points south were closed by a police road block. There was evidence of fast moving surge and inundation on Harbor Island with several homes along North Harbor badly damaged by combination of wind/surge. Two to four structures on the water were likely a total loss. Utilities personnal reported approximately 2 ft inundation at water pumps along Harbor Drive. Measurements estimated surge approximately 5.5 feet and inundation between 2 and 4 ft at beach front along North Harbor Drive.
Hunting Island State Park was not accessible due to downed trees, but aerial photographs depicted sand covered roadways and parking lots accompanied by many downed trees across the state park and along U.S. 21 along north side of island. The pier on the south end of Hunting Island was damaged.
Evidence of storm surge was found well inland on Fripp Island and the combination of fresh/salt water flooding persisted during the survey. Evidence of fast moving surge/inundation was also found along Porpoise Drive and the waterfront along the northeast side of island, including boulders from the sea wall and sand deposited along the road. Water marks indicated approximately 2 feet of fast-moving surge and splash marks to approximately 3 ft. Measurements at High Dunes Road indicated that surge as high as 6.6 ft could have occurred.
Per a Hurricane Matthew NWS survey on Hilton Head Island, storm surge made it over hole 18 of the Harbour Town Golf Links course and up to the entrances of nearby building/residences on the far side of the fairway. Water did not appear to enter any buildings. In general, a 1-2 ft escarpment was observed on the beaches, particularly at Coligny Beach, but there was no evidence of oceanside buildings damaged along the beach. Local media videos indicated a possible combination of fresh and salt water inundation on streets in Palmetto Hall Plantation.

From 07-OCT-16 14:00:00 to 08-OCT-16 08:00:00 (EST-5)
Reported by: NWS Storm Survey

A Hurricane Matthew NWS storm survey found scattered tree damage and significant power outages in Beaufort. Tree and structural damage increased with southward progress along U.S. 21, especially beginning on St. Helena Island. Damage suggests the eyewall reached this location. Extensive tree damage was seen on Dataw Island, including hundreds of trees, some on several homes. Damage was consistent with wind gusts around 100 mph.
Extensive shingle/roof damage occurred to about 50% of homes on Harbor Island, especially along Harbor Drive and North Harbor Drive. The worst structural damage was consistent with wind gusts 100-110 mph. A combination of wind/surge also badly damaged several waterfront homes along North Harbor Drive.
Hunting Island State Park was not accessible due to downed trees, but aerial photographs depicted  many downed trees across the state park and along U.S. 21 along north side of island. The pier on the south end of Hunting Island was also damaged.
On Fripp Island, structural damage included significant shingle/roof damage consistent with wind gusts at least 100 mph and major overall structural damage to two waterfront homes at the south end of Porpoise Drive. On another home, garage doors were buckled/damaged by a combination of surge and wind.
On Hilton Head, thousands of trees were snapped/uprooted across the island, with a larger quantity of trees down across the northern end of the island. Several trees fell on structures, causing major damage to homes. Tree damage supported 90-100 mph wind gusts, although gusts could have exceeded 100 mph in some locations. Evidence of tree damage was also seen on aerial imagery. A large swath of hundreds of trees were down in the Palmetto Hall Plantation area just west of Beach City Road. Aerial imagery indicated the trees were down in roughly a northeast to southwest direction, mainly following swamp/marsh areas. Trees likely were uprooted and blown over due to the combination of wet ground and high winds in bands of convection surrounding the western eyewall of Hurricane Matthew as is tracked north along the coast. At 550 AM a peak wind gust of 87 mph was recorded at Hilton Head Airport (KHXD).

Reported by: NWS Storm Survey

A Hurricane Matthew NWS storm survey of Edisto Beach revealed at least 70 beach front homes along a 1.5 mile stretch of Palmetto Boulevard damaged by a combination of storm surge and wave action. The most significant damage was along the northern end of Edisto Beach, where most homes were severely undercut with concrete foundations and driveways completely destroyed at ground level. This was the area where Palmetto Blvd makes a right turn toward the south near Pavilion Pier to Osceola Boulevard. One home was also completely destroyed at this location. Water and sand lines indicated 5 to 6 feet of beach erosion at the base of oceanside homes. A few homes also had rock barriers which were damaged and some rocks were washed into the first floor of a home. Farther south along Palmetto Boulevard, homes exhibited shingle, siding and window damage. One home had a broken water pipe that was still spraying water under the first floor. A deck was likely washed away from wooden stairs 10 to 15 feet tall which was no longer attached to any structure.
Approximately 4 to 5 feet of surge was determined to have occurred based on a waterline noted on a home across the street of Palmetto Blvd near the intersection with Osceola. Approximately 2 to 5 feet of sand was pushed onshore and covered a 2-mile stretch of road on Palmetto Blvd. Widespread debris was mixed with the sand, including gas tanks, refrigerators, a/c Units, etc. Further inland, numerous trees and flooded waters remained post storm. Approximately 1 to 2 feet of water was still present further south along Palmetto Boulevard for about a 1 mile stretch. Water also remained under homes on the far side of Palmetto Boulevard and adjacent blocks further inland, likely trapped for several days due to the beachfront elevation giving no way for the water to return to the ocean. Most homes on the far side of Palmetto Boulevard had little to no damage, but several homes on stilts were surrounded by water. A report from the former Meteorologist-In-Charge of WFO Charleston indicated that the front beach of Edisto Beach was basically moved inland a couple of blocks. Even as late as October 16 there were still places under water, but most of the sand had been cleared from the roads.
