“Impending failure” of the dam. That would be some apocalyptic shit

Western NC is like New Orleans during Katrina. It's a mess all over this area too. Not as bad as Western NC, though... It's hard to believe how much damage was done there.Asheville got totally fukked. Swanannoa and Black Mtn are even worse. Chimney Rock has pretty much been wiped off the map. Haven’t had wifi or cell service since yesterday morning.
Finally bummed some wifi off the hospital and posted up in a camp chair to watch Carolina piss away the win. Watching them shit the bed from a FEMA disaster zone is definitely a new low.

This is one of the reasons I left the coast. Every fall is the same thing. This is the first one that's had a major impact this far inland since Hugo, I think.A lot of people here still won’t realize how bad it is because cell and wifi is still mostly down. I’m lucky to have a spot where I can get wifi but most people are totally in the dark.
Helicopters and sirens are pretty much constantly in the background. It sounds like the beginning of an apocalypse movie.

I never knew Western NC was such a risk for flooding like that. I don't know if it's the placement of the escarpment or what. Stay safe.
