      Alanna Keating Honored with 2025 Women Making Waves Award  
      for Boating Industry Contributions

       

      SPRINGFIELD, VA – January 22, 2026 – This week, Alanna Keating, Director of Outreach at BoatUS Foundation, received Boating Industry’s 2025 Women Making Waves Award at the ELEVATE Summit in Orlando, Florida. Alanna was recognized for her contributions to the boating industry. The Women Making Waves program honors women in the industry who contribute greatly to the industry’s success as they lead their organizations and peers.

      For more than two decades, Keating has been a trusted name in the boating industry, partnering with hundreds of organizations to help make boating safer and pursuing prestigious grants that greatly benefit recreational boaters and support the safety and practice of clean boating. Under her leadership, BoatUS Foundation has been awarded several national and regional grants and continues to grow its presence as a leading nonprofit organization that aims to reduce boating accidents, grow safe boating educational outreach, and increase stewardship of waterways for more than 50 years.

      Alanna joined the BoatUS Foundation in 2005, with a background in environmental management, quickly leading projects that required compliance, precision and collaboration. As Director of Outreach, Alanna spearheaded the growth of the Life Jacket Loaner Program, the first nationwide program of its kind that allows families to borrow life jackets at more than 600 loaner sites across the country. She also facilitated the Reel In and Recycle Program, which has helped build more than 13,000 fishing line recycling bins.

      More recently, Alanna secured a prestigious $10 million NOAA grant that supports abandoned and derelict vessel (ADV) cleanup efforts in coastal and Great Lakes waters across the country, and she is also leading the development of a national ADV tracking database, the first of its kind.

      “I am so honored to be recognized as a Women Making Waves this year. My dad loved boating, and some of my greatest memories are boat days with my family growing up. Being able to bring that to other people and help keep them safe on the water is my passion,” said Alanna Keating, Director of Outreach at BoatUS Foundation. “I hope my enthusiasm for this industry and the work being done in safe and clean boating inspires other women to join us. There is so much opportunity to find your place in the industry and to make a lasting impact. There is incredible work being done within the industry in S.T.E.M., conservation, social marketing and more, which needs passionate people to drive change.”

      Keating also maintains an active presence on numerous industry working groups, including the Aquatic Invasive Species Commission (commissioner and steering committee member), the Education and Outreach committee of the Aquatic Nuisance Species Task Force, the Virginia Abandoned and Derelict Vessel Working Group, and several NOAA committees and working groups on marine debris issues including fishing line recycling, shrinkwrap recycling, and abandoned and derelict vessels.

      Weekend Winter Storm Update – SCDNR

       

       

       

       

      South Carolina Department of Natural Resources color logo and white text of agency name and State Climatology Office

      Weather Alert  –  January 21, 2026

      Weekend Winter Storm Update

      Key Points:

      • A Winter Storm Watch is now in effect for much of northern South Carolina, including the Upstate, Catawba Region and Chesterfield County.

      A map showing the counties under a Winter Storm Watch, highlighted in blue

      A map showing the counties under a Winter Storm Watch, highlighted in blue

      • Confidence continues to increase that at least a part of South Carolina will be affected by a major, long-duration winter storm this weekend.
      • However, the storm’s forecast track has shifted northward, lessening potential impacts for areas along and south of I-20. Timing has changed as well, with the storm starting in the afternoon or evening on Saturday and lasting into early Monday.
      • The storm’s details, such as precipitation type, remain uncertain. Shifting computer model output will likely lead to more forecast changes.
      • Most likely scenario, not heavily favored due to uncertainty:
        • Snow, if any, and sleet in the Upstate starting on Saturday, will eventually turn to freezing rain. There may be a sleet accumulation into Saturday night, and a damaging ice buildup is possible on Sunday. Travel will be hazardous through at least Monday morning. Should there be a significant sleet accumulation, it would be slow to melt behind the storm as it remains cold.
        • Across the CSRA, the Midlands, and northern Pee Dee, freezing rain may dominate north of I-20, with a chance of damaging ice accumulation and slippery travel Saturday night into Sunday. Areas along and south of I-20 see freezing rain for a time, then rain as temperatures warm above freezing on Sunday.
        • Areas further south and east may see freezing rain for a time Saturday night, then rain Sunday. Elevated road surfaces could become icy for a time.
        • The Lowcountry and Grand Strand primarily see rain, though a period of freezing rain is possible at the onset, especially inland. Some models show it warming up enough on Sunday for thunderstorms.
      • Worst-case scenarios include:
        • A severe ice storm is possible where freezing rain is dominant; the best chance appears to be in the Upstate, the Catawba Region, and the northern CSRA and Midlands.
        • Continued northward shifts in the storm track would shift the potential for sleet accumulations out of South Carolina, but a damaging ice storm would still occur in the Upstate. Less of the state would be at risk for a damaging ice buildup.
        • A more southerly track of the storm would bring heavy snow and sleet back into South Carolina, with a damaging ice storm further south, as previously thought. This idea is looking increasingly unlikely. However, the warmer, further north computer models may not be handling this weekend’s cold-air damming, and temperatures may remain below freezing near I-20 longer than the models indicate, resulting in a significant ice buildup in that area.

      Good afternoon. A northward shift in the computer model guidance on the track of a winter storm for much of the nation changes the potential impacts here in South Carolina. 

      The forecast for now through Friday night remains unchanged:

      • We remain dry through most of tonight.
      • The next cold front will move in on Thursday, bringing light rain to the Upstate, possibly starting by daybreak in some areas.
      • Light rain is possible over much of the state Thursday night into Friday evening as this cold front slowly sinks southward.
      • Arctic air will filter into South Carolina behind this front starting Friday evening.

      Our next storm, currently approaching California, will reach us on Saturday. It has become unlikely that any significant snow will fall in the state (a little at the onset maybe), but sleet and freezing rain are likely to affect much of the state. The computer models continue to show a range of possibilities, but the trend has been our friend, showing less of the state experiencing significant impacts.

      It would be best to start your preparations soon if you’re in an area that still may be hit by a damaging ice storm and slippery travel. How do you deal with it? SCEMD’s SC Winter Weather Guide is a good starting point, and you can get more tips on winter storm preparedness at ready.gov. Pay close attention to the generator safety and kerosene and propane heater safety tips; carbon monoxide is quite the villain.

      The picture should get increasingly clearer over the next couple of days as we get closer to the event. Another update is coming on Thursday!
