GunBlade Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Is there a site or anything that shows max wind gusts in the past hour or 24 hours etc...? Only things I can find are current reports. There has to of been some 60 mph gusts here this morning based on what we were getting yesterday.

shaggy Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Rumor is they are closing I95 at SC and Virginia borders to all incoming traffic except for relief efforts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solak Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 I'm having a really hard time buying in to the 4"-6" still to come for this area. Even the heavier bands and showers aren't coming down at any kind of rate. We've only picked up 0.55" today since 8:00AM. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nchighcountrywx Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Greg Carbin (@GCarbin) 9/15/18, 21:03 Over the next 36-hours or so, areas of the North Carolina Piedmont and the mountainous terrain of western NC will experience devastating flash flooding unlike anything in recent memory. Roads and bridges will wash away and damage will be severe. #PDS_Flash_Flood_Watch William N Harrell Jr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BxEngine Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Hey guys sorry for the subforum intrusion...just trying to find out any info on the Leland area (and that entire area just west of Wilmington really). Anyone know how its held up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kvegas-wx Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Good grief is Flo even moving anymore? She is still drinking off the atlantic like a 7-11 big gulp. The radar is loaded for another 6-8 hours. If feel for those folks down east, but now I'm starting to worry about the folks around CLT and across the southern piedmont. The flooding is going to get scary bad real quick tomorrow with another 6-12" to go. There is just no way to prepare for this type of destruction across an entire state.

He has never seen flooding this bad in that area, and he has been through many hurricanes down there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Solak is scarred because his location has apparently replaced wherever Shetley lives as the desert spot of the east. Seriously though, some folks in my hometown of Hope Mills are at risk of being flooded out for the second time in three years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't the town drain HM Lake last week in prep? I'm catching reports it's back up toward full/minor because of the Cape Fear River.Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJF0602 Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Hey all checking in from jville. Im going into my 5th day now with no power lol. Finally am getting some sort of signal today where I can get a internet page to load. It has been crazy here in town. Any gas stations open you'll be waiting for one of two hours, same with the select fast food that has opened. The flooding that occured here was crazy. Water had over taken bridges on highway 17 and people were driving over it smh. I have videos i took when the winds got crazy and when i have a better signal I will upload. Most damage to our neighborhood is down trees and privacy fences, we were fortunate not to flood like other parts of jacksonville. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WEATHER53 Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Florence giving us in DC some serious t&l and downpours. What I had for 20 minutes you had for 24+ hours. Unimaginable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I had for 20 minutes you had for 24+ hours. Unimaginable. 24 hours x 2 in some places. Here in the triad we had between 6-8" over roughly a 36 hour run. The Dan River up in Danville VA was near its all time high I think. There were many places, almost the entire sandhills region SE of Raleigh down to the coast, that received steady rainfall for 48 hours or more. There are rivers cresting this morning over 30' above flood stage next to towns with zero elevation. New Bern, Kinston, Jacksonville. And even littler towns like Pollocksville NC which may cease to exist after this. An unprecendented catastrophy. Flo made her mark in history. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCSNOW Posted September 18, 2018 Author Share Posted September 18, 2018 Sadly the death toll is up to 32 from Florence. and as feared the Cape Fear is setting new records for all time highs at many gauges. Heres a bfore and after pic I saw. This river flooding is going to be historic as many of us guessed it would be. Florence will be one of the top 10 costliest Hurricane disasters in our countrys history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
