wncsnow Posted Tuesday at 12:06 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 12:06 PM If that system goes west of us we will get SE flow and orographical uplift on the Blue Ridge. I could easily see 4-6" of rain with more along the crest. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WNC_Fort Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago Yea, I’m not feeling good about this at all. Surprising mix of opinions locally. Some are just saying as “long as it isn’t Helene” but this is still a lot of rain and we haven’t been tested much since. I’m worried, especially along the escarpment.

It surely doesn’t seem like it. Granted, I think we’re paying for all of the nice weather luck we’ve had the last couple of years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creeks and streams may rise out of their banks. Low-water crossings may be flooded. Storm drains and ditches may become clogged with debris. Extensive street flooding and flooding of creeks and rivers are possible. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - Upslope rainfall from a rather strong southeasterly Low level jet from the remnants of Isaias will bring increased precipitation along the crest of the southern Blue Ridge from Floyd county extending southwestward towards Watauga county. Widespread rainfall totals of 2-4 inches with locally higher totals in the 5-6 range will be possible, especially for areas like Meadows of Dan, Boone, and Blowing Rock. These higher totals may lead to isolated instances of landslides along slopes that have been modified by humans like embankments or cut slopes. These areas may also see increased rises on local streamflows that may lead to flooding across low-water crossings. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m nervous about what this could knock loose - both land and trees that may still be hanging by a thread. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
