Met1985 Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 Emergency crews cannot even get up to Cruso, Bethel, Lake Logan area. Canton is completely cutoff from all main roads. Lake Logan dam is fixing to go. Just absolutely devastating and sad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wncsnow Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 It's awful here in McDowell. Catawba has broken the record and may well go to 20 feet. I'm so worried I am going to lose everything. Water is spilling 7.5 feet over Lake Tahoma dam. If it's compromised the whole area is in big trouble 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
