Latest news says the water is running over the top of it but it is still holding...for now.

North Carolina floods: Lake Lure Dam overtops with water, but remains in tact, officials say

Several counties in western North Carolina are experiencing flooding caused by heavy rain from what was Helene.

I have family, my mom, a cousin and two nephews and their families right in the middle of it.

It is bad. And there might be another storm forming in the trail left by Helene.

When I saw that it made a left hook I figured all that was gonna happen was that it would reorganize as a low and then head east and piss on us again.

I wish your family good luck because I know mountain storms like that are no joke.

He should have redrawn the Hurricane Map. He could have made it so the Hurricane only hit Blue States

No, it is a US Message Board that has forum dedicated to political matters and forums dedicated to other matters.
