North of Nicole a strong area of high pressure produced a strong pressure gradient leading to gusty winds well north of the center of the storm. Rainfall amounts of 1 to 3 inches across the area along with wind gusts from 30 to 40 mph were common. Here are some of the highest wind gusts associated with Nicole over the Midlands and Central Savannah River Area. ...HIGHEST WIND REPORTS...
