Couldn't make it in to work (ICC) I-26 is flooding at the bottom of the mountain near the Columbus NC exit. Took Hwy 176 back home to Saluda and can't believe how much water is on the road and how fast the waterfalls are running.  This is like a tropical system getting caught in the southern Apps.

They are closing at 12 today. My wife went in this morning.

max gust was 35.3 just now.

That gust plowed through here, really intense for about 10 minutes.  We had two big trees topple over but thankfully they were in the woods behind the house and not on my property.  Hearing some rumbling thunder.  I've never seen as much water in our yard as we have now.

I think the wedge boundary may be protecting us from the higher winds for now at least.

I have been wondering about that.  honestly, there has been almost no wind here so far.  a few gusts but I haven't noticed any wind the last couple of hours

however we have had a ton of rain - all the streams are out of their banks and standing water at a lot of intersections.  rain has really lightened up the last 30 min or so
