Jed Christoph of Channel 2 Brings Us the Local Weather

Jed Christoph, the meteorologist you see on Channel 2 News, grew up in Charleston, South Carolina and has seen all sorts of wild weather here, everything from hurricanes and tornadoes to major floods and even snow.

While attending college, Jed would spend summers on Kiawah and Seabrook Islands working as an EMR and ocean lifeguard, handling ocean and medical emergencies. He graduated from Western Kentucky University with a degree in Meteorology in May 2020 and then headed out to Missoula, MT, for his first on-air meteorologist job. In his three years there, he reported on intense winter storms, freezing cold, wildfires, and severe weather.

Now, he's excited to be back home, working as a meteorologist for the station he grew up watching!

Don't forget to reserve your spot!

Geological Relationship of Deveaux Island and Seabrook Island - November 13, 2025

We are pleased to welcome two distinguished experts in coastal science, Dr. Dana Beach and Dr. Patrick Barrineau, for an insightful discussion on the fascinating dynamics between geology, time, and tide between Seabrook and Deveaux Islands. Both Dr. Beach and Dr. Barrineau are well-known and respected figures within the Seabrook Island community for their extensive work, particularly in the study of Deveaux Island, a natural treasure right in our own backyard.

Dr. Dana Beach, the founder and executive director of the South Carolina Coastal Conservation League (SCCCL), has been a tireless advocate for the preservation of our state’s coastal resources. A native of Columbia, SC, Dr. Beach’s impressive academic background includes a magna cum laude degree in mathematics from Davidson College and an MBA from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania. With decades of experience in environmental advocacy, he has written extensively and spoken on crucial issues such as hazardous waste management, wetlands, beachfront conservation, and land use planning.

Dr. Patrick Barrineau, a coastal scientist and project manager with Coastal Science and Engineering (CSE), brings a wealth of expertise in coastal sedimentology and the intricate processes shaping our beaches and dunes. With advanced degrees in Geography from Auburn University, the University of South Carolina, and Texas A&M, Dr. Barrineau has managed several prominent coastal projects, including beach renourishment efforts in Arcadian Shores and post-storm recovery initiatives following Hurricane Matthew. His work has contributed to a deeper understanding of coastal dynamics and resilience in the face of ever-changing environmental conditions.

Please join us in the Seabrook Island Lake House on November 13 for a pre-event social starting at 6:30 PM with light refreshments, followed by the program at 7:00 PM. This promises to be a thought-provoking evening of discussion on the critical forces shaping our coastal environments.
