We’ll be sending you our newsletter for the next five days, but if you’re not feeling it after that, we’ll call it quits — no action required. If you like what you see, click any link in this email, and each morning, we’ll keep sending the most relevant news, events, and updates from around Charleston. Our newsletters are completely free to receive and you can unsubscribe at any time.
Over the weekend, the Lowcountry was dusted with a rare southern snow. Did you brave the cold to snap some pictures? If so, send them to us — or tap the blue button below to share your post — for a chance to be featured in the newsletter or an upcoming Instagram post.
If space is what you’re after, look no further. This oceanfront Kiawah Island home offers more than 8,000 sq-ft plus a dock, elevator, pool, and option to purchase a highly coveted Kiawah Island Golf Membership. We can see ourselves out back, sipping a glass of wine overlooking the pool.
Today Is
Groundhog Day, when Punxsutawney Phil will emerge and predict whether or not we’ll see an early spring, a tradition dating back 139 years. Whatever Phil says, we’ve got plenty of Lowcountry events lined up for February. Just check the forecast first.
State
There are no athletes representing Charleston in Team USA for the 2026 Winter Olympics. In fact, there are none from South Carolina heading to Northern Italy to compete. You could buck that trend in four years’ time with few lessons at Carolina Ice Palace.
Sports
Super Bowl LX is locked in — the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots will meet Sunday, Feb. 8 at Levi’s Stadium in the San Francisco Bay Area. Consider this your cue to text the group chat and pick a Charleston sports bar for game day. (USA Today)
On This Day
Irish novelist and poet James Joyce was born on this day, February 2, 1882. As he once wisely said, “life is too short to read a bad book.” Find a good one instead at one of the Holy City’s independent bookstores.
Travel
It can be tough to find time to work out. Good news — a new study suggests that a couple of 30-45 minute sessions per week could be enough to make “very good gains.” If you’ve got the time, see which of Charleston’s gyms would suit your schedule. (NPR)
