That last line of storms through the Triangle were pretty intense.

I for one am glad they have passed through. The rain just ended at my house. Helene has affected more areas in the Southeast in different ways than any storm in my recent memory.

Busick, NC: 29.58"

I’m pretty familiar with that area. It’s on the eastern side of Mt. Mitchell. I can’t imagine what the South Toe River looks like right now. Several campgrounds, homes, as well as Mount Mitchell Golf Course along the river through there.

10.52” of rain for the storm total. I think if I drilled a hole in my slab I’d have a fountain. This sucks.

Reminded me I didn't post my rain total..picked up 8.65. After such a long dry spell I for one welcomed this part of it. Of course I would have been cursing it if I had lost any trees

Adding weather content. West Virginia's turn.

It looks like it's being torn in half.

Spartanburg County declared state of emergency

Edit: they’re reporting 911 is down for an “indefinite” amount of time

It literally looks as if Augusta got hit by a cat 1-2 hurricane early this morning and we were not under a hurricane warning...

Which I never understood. The Savannah river valley was ground zero for 72 hours as far as I was concerned for GA.

 

[Carolina Sky]

Looks like I dodged all the rotating storms. Getting some good rain now.
