\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t644. IN TIME FOR NEWS TO GO, WE HAVE A LOOK AT TODAY\u2019S TOP NEWS STORIES ALONG WITH YOUR TRAFFIC AND WEATHER, ALL BEFORE YOU HEAD OUT THE DOOR. WE BEGIN WITH BREAKING NEWS OUT OF OCONEE COUNTY. ISABELLE MARKS AT THE OCONEE COUNTY LAW ENFORCEMENT CENTER. ISABELLE. WHAT DO WE KNOW SO FAR? HEY, ERIN, WHAT WE KNOW SO FAR IS THAT OFFICIALS ARE INVESTIGATING A HOMICIDE AFTER A WIFE AND HUSBAND WERE FOUND DEAD IN THEIR HOME OVERNIGHT. NOW, THERE\u2019S LIMITED DETAILS SINCE THIS IS STILL PRETTY EARLY ON IN THE INVESTIGATION. BUT WHAT WE DO KNOW SO FAR IS THAT THE COUNTY CORONER SAYS THAT THEY RECEIVED A CALL AROUND 9:00 LAST NIGHT AND REPORT THAT THE COUPLE WAS FOUND DEAD IN THEIR HOME ON CROMER MOOR DRIVE, NEAR WESTMINSTER. THE 911 CALL WAS PLACED BY A FAMILY MEMBER WHO WAS CHECKING IN AFTER NOT BEING ABLE TO REACH THEM, AND THE CORONER\u2019S OFFICE SAYS THE DEATHS ARE BEING INVESTIGATED AS A HOMICIDE. THE VICTIMS HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AS 76 YEAR OLD LARRY MOORE AND HIS WIFE, 75 YEAR OLD SANDRA MOORE. WE HAVE NO ADDITIONAL DETAILS RIGHT NOW. WE DON\u2019T KNOW IF THERE\u2019S A SUSPECT INVOLVED. WE ALSO DON\u2019T KNOW THEIR CAUSE OF DEATH JUST YET. WE\u2019LL CONTINUE TO KEEP YOU UPDATED, BOTH ON AIR AND ONLINE, AS WE CONTINUE TO LEARN MORE, BUT FOR NOW, REPORTING LIVE IN OCONEE COUNTY. ISABELLE MARAK WYFF NEWS FOUR ISABELLE. THANK YOU. MORE BREAKING NEWS WE\u2019RE FOLLOWING THIS MORNING. DEPUTIES IN GREENVILLE COUNTY ARE SEARCHING FOR A MAN THEY SAY ATTACKED A WOMAN. DEPUTIES SAY IT HAPPENED JUST AFTER MIDNIGHT NEAR WEST PARKER ROAD. DEPUTIES SAY THEY GOT A 911 CALL REGARDING AN ATTACK. AND WHEN THEY GOT TO THE SCENE, THEY LOCATED A WOMAN WITH SIGNIFICANT INJURIES. THEY DESCRIBED THE SUSPECTED ATTACKER AS A MAN WEARING CAMOUFLAGE PANTS AND A BLACK JACKET. INVESTIGATORS SAY THE VICTIM AND THE SUSPECT KNEW EACH OTHER AND THE ATTACK APPEARS ISOLATED. VICTORIA. ALL RIGHT. BUNDLE UP OUT THE DOOR THIS MORNING. IT\u2019S DEFINITELY COLD. STARTING OFF IN SINGLE DIGITS IN THE 20S FOR WIND CHILLS ACROSS THE CAROLINAS. THEN AS WE HEAD THROUGH THE AFTERNOON, WE BEGIN TO WARM UP AND WE\u2019LL SEE MORE SUNSHINE. ONCE AGAIN, A BREEZE COMES IN FROM THE SOUTHWEST LATER TODAY. THIS WILL BRING TEMPERATURES UP ABOVE FREEZING BY TOMORROW MORNING. FOR THE UPSTATE, WE\u2019LL SEE A MIXTURE OF SNOW AND RAIN FOR THE MOUNTAINS EARLY ON SATURDAY, AS THIS COLD FRONT BLOWS IN. MAINLY JUST RAIN FOR THE UPSTATE BECAUSE TEMPERATURES ARE ABOVE FREEZING BEFORE THE MOUNTAINS, WE\u2019LL CONTINUE TO SEE THAT MIX OF RAIN AND SNOW. AND THEN ONCE THAT COLD FRONT BLOWS THROUGH, WE LOSE THAT MOISTURE FOR SATURDAY. TEMPERATURES ACTUALLY WARM UP TOWARDS THE 50S FOR TOMORROW. IT WILL BE A NICE AFTERNOON OVERALL. AND THEN WE WATCH THAT COLD BLAST MOVE IN ON SUNDAY. AGAIN, WE\u2019VE BEEN WATCHING THESE WEATHER MODELS OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS FOR THAT POTENTIAL OF SNOW HERE IN THE UPSTATE, AND NOW IT IS BACKING OFF FOR LOCAL SNOW TOTALS OR SNOW CHANCES HERE FOR THE UPSTATE AND FOR NORTH CAROLINA. MOST MODELS NOW KEEP THIS COLD FRONT SOUTH OF THE MIDLANDS. NOW AGAIN, IT\u2019S CLOUDY ENOUGH AND WE COULD SQUEEZE OUT A FEW FLURRIES THROUGH THE MORNING. AND THEN THAT SHOULD BE IT. ONCE THIS COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH WE COULD SEE SNOW POTENTIAL MAINLY FOR THE COAST. AND THEN BEHIND THAT. SUNSHINE RETURNS MONDAY WITH SOME PRETTY COLD WEATHER. AARON VICTORIA ANOTHER LOOK AT TRAFFIC AT 6.47. BUT FIRST, THE SOUTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION IS PREPARING ROADS ACROSS THE STATE FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF SNOW AND ICE THIS WEEKEND. SCDOT HAS TWO SALT DOMES IN THE STATE AND ONE IN THE UPSTATE HAS MORE THAN 10,000 TONS OF SALT. IT\u2019S USED TO PREPARE THE ROADS FOR SNOWY WEATHER CONDITIONS. SCDOT SAYS IT WILL PRIORITIZE HEAVILY TRAVELED ROADS BEFORE MAKING THEIR WAY TO SECONDARY ROADS. WE\u2019VE BEEN KEEPING A CLOSE EYE ON OUR ROADS THROUGHOUT THE MORNING. WE\u2019RE NOW LOOKING AT 85. THIS IS RIGHT AT THAT 26 INTERCHANGE, SPECIFICALLY 85 SOUTH AT I-26 IN SPARTANBURG COUNTY. NO ISSUES THERE. I DO WANT TO CALL YOUR ATTENTION, THOUGH. THERE IS A CRASH AT EXIT ONE IN LANDRUM ON 26 WESTBOUND. SO IF YOU\u2019RE HEADED TO LANDRUM, MAYBE YOU\u2019RE CROSSING THE STATE LINE GOING INTO NORTH CAROLINA. WE\u2019RE SEEING A LITTLE BACKUP THERE. UNFORTUNATELY, THERE\u2019S NOT A CAMERA RIGHT THERE, BUT I\u2019D ESTIMATE THAT BACK UP A LITTLE BIT. ABOUT A HALF A MILE RIGHT THERE. TRAVEL TIMES OVERALL LOOK GOOD THOUGH. 26 EASTBOUND IS 11 MINUTES FROM I-240 TO ASHEVILLE. HIGHWAY 85 SOUTHBOUND FROM AIRPORT WOODRUFF ROAD TO SIX MINUTES AND 35 NORTHBOUND FROM FAIRVIEW ROAD TO DOWNTOWN. 14 MINUTES. TRI-COUNTY TECHNICAL COLLEGE IS EXPANDING. THE COLLEGE IS BREAKING GROUND TODAY ON A $31 MILLION INVESTMENT IN ITS ANDERSON CAMPUS, WITH THE GOAL TO EXPAND AND GROW ITS WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS. THE EXPANSION WILL CREATE A MANUFACTURING, UTILITIES, TRANSPORTATION AND LOGISTICS HUB TO HOUSE EIGHT PROGRAMS ON A SINGLE CAMPUS. THE CONSTRUCTION IS EXPECTED TO BE DONE BY THE END OF NEXT YEAR, AND THE GROUNDBREAKING CEREMONY SET FOR 11:00 THIS MORNING WITH DINNER PLANS HAVE BEEN A STRUGGLE.

Of those infected, here is the vaccination status: 483 unvaccinated, 6 partially vaccinated with one of the recommended two-dose MMR sequence, 13 vaccinated, and 56 unknown. The incubation period for measles is usually 7 to 14 days but can be up to 21 days. People should monitor for measles symptoms for 21 days after exposure. Symptoms of measles include cough, runny nose, red watery eyes, and fever followed by a rash two to three days later that starts on the face then spreads to the rest of the body. The MMR vaccine is safe and is the best way to protect against the virus. Vaccination now can avoid long quarantines at home for those exposed to the measles virus. Vaccination within 72 hours of exposure can prevent measles infections. Vaccines are available at many primary care provider offices and pharmacies, as well as DPH Health Departments.\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n A measles exposure has been reported at several Upstate businesses including Walmart as 124 new cases have been reported since Tuesday.<\/p>\n The new cases have brought the total number of cases in South Carolina related to the Upstate outbreak to 558.<\/p>\n Quick Facts124 new cases since TuesdayThere are currently 531 people in quarantine and 85 in isolation.
