Looks like the warning was revoked

Hmmm

Cocke County, Newport evacuations ordered after false alarm over 'catastrophic' dam failure

High waters from both the Pigeon and French Broad rivers closed several roads and led to evacuations and water rescues in East Tennessee.

The NC mountains are devastated. It’s the worst in over 100 years. Over development has stuck again.

Flooding?

 

[NC-smokinlmm]

Yes, major flooding. I-40 is gone on nc/tn border and there are several towns that are just gone. Reports are slow to come in bc of the lack of cell coverage. My wife’s aunt still doesn’t know if her house made it.

And we're still listed as being under a burn ban

Thats like California being listed as being in a drought when storm comes through and causes major flooding...

Idk where we stand with water and rain as of now but this rain can let up at anytime. I think this is 5”6-7 days straight now?

Ok, Tom. We'll let you have this one Lion's win. But don't expect us to give you many more ?
