Food insecurity is a challenge for many families across our state, and local organizations are continuing to step up. Great to spend time with the folks at Clemson Community Care and share a @DukeEnergy Foundation grant as part of a monthlong effort to fight hunger in SC.

Yesterday a team from @DukeEnergy spent the morning cleaning up the area around Warpath Landing on Lake Keowee. This is just one of the ways we are celebrating #America250 and our commitment to the communities we serve.

This is a helpful explanation of the different ways that ice accumulation impacts trees and power lines, and why sleet is a welcome alternative to freezing rain.
