COLUMBIA, S.C. — Severe storms moved through the Midlands, triggering warnings and brining high winds, some rain, and even a little hail. 

All warnings for the area have been canceled. A severe thunderstorm watch does still remain for the entire Midlands until 10 p.m. Friday.

As the storms moved through, the National Weather Service warned of high wind gusts, possibly up to 70 miles an hour. News19 has not gotten reports of any severe damage. 

In addition to strong winds, there was some isolated hail. 

On Saturday afternoon, an upper-level disturbance will move into South Carolina bringing clouds back into the forecast, but humidity levels will be too low to support anything other than scattered showers. This disturbance will keep some clouds around for Mother's Day.
