What happened
The episode as NWS GSP wrote it up.
Slow-moving late evening thunderstorms produced heavy rain which caused some urban-type flooding. Some roads were nearly impassable in Rock Hill due to "rivers" of water flowing through the streets. In Spartanburg, a couple of cars stalled in a normally flood-prone area near Westgate Mall, water from run-off covered one bridge, and one foot of water was reported over a road on the north side.
