SITUATION OVERVIEW
------------------
Helene has been downgraded to a Tropical Storm and is now centered
over the Smoky Mountains. Significant flooding has been observed
across a broad area of the western Carolinas and northeast Georgia,
particularly in the vicinity of the mountains and foothills.
Widespread tree and power line damage has occurred across the region,
and many roads have been made impassable by floodwaters. We continue
to advise against travel unless fleeing rising floodwaters. Wind gusts
have peaked for the event over most of the area, but tropical storm
force gusts will remain possible through early afternoon in the
Piedmont and southern mountains of North Carolina, and through mid to
late afternoon over the northern North Carolina mountains and on all
ridgetops. Landslides still could occur across the mountains, at least
until the last of the rain tapers off this afternoon or evening.
Tornado threat is diminishing and now confined to the North Carolina
Piedmont, and will taper off completely by early afternoon.
POTENTIAL IMPACTS
-----------------
* WIND:
Potential impacts from the main wind event are now unfolding across
the western Carolinas and NE Georgia. Remain well sheltered from
hazardous wind having additional limited impacts. If
realized, these impacts include:
- Damage to porches, awnings, carports, sheds, and unanchored
mobile homes. Unsecured lightweight objects blown about.
- Many large tree limbs broken off. A few trees snapped or
uprooted, but with greater numbers in places where trees are
shallow rooted. Some fences and roadway signs blown over.
- A few roads impassable from debris, particularly within urban
or heavily wooded places. Hazardous driving conditions on
bridges and other elevated roadways.
- Scattered power and communications outages.
* FLOODING RAIN:
Potential impacts from the flooding rain are still unfolding across
the western Carolinas and NE Georgia. Remain well guarded against
life-threatening flood waters having additional devastating impacts.
If realized, these impacts include:
- Extreme rainfall flooding may prompt numerous evacuations and
rescues.
- Rivers and tributaries may overwhelmingly overflow their banks
in many places with deep moving water. Small streams, creeks,
canals, arroyos, and ditches may become raging rivers. In
mountain areas, deadly runoff may rage down valleys while
increasing susceptibility to rockslides and mudslides. Flood
control systems and barriers may become stressed.
- Flood waters can enter numerous structures within multiple
communities, some structures becoming uninhabitable or washed
away. Numerous places where flood waters may cover escape
routes. Streets and parking lots become rivers of raging water
with underpasses submerged. Driving conditions become very
dangerous. Numerous road and bridge closures with some weakened
or washed out.
* TORNADOES:
Potential impacts from tornadoes are still unfolding across the
North Carolina Piedmont. Remain well braced against a dangerous tornado
event having possible significant impacts. If realized, these impacts
include:
- The occurrence of scattered tornadoes can hinder the execution
of emergency plans during tropical events.
- Several places may experience tornado damage with a few spots
of considerable damage, power loss, and communications failures.
- Locations could realize roofs torn off frame houses, mobile
homes demolished, boxcars overturned, large trees snapped or
uprooted, vehicles tumbled, and small boats tossed about.
Dangerous projectiles can add to the toll.
Elsewhere across the western Carolinas and NE Georgia, little to no
impact is anticipated.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS
----------------------------------
* EVACUATIONS:
An evacuation is ongoing downstream of Lake Lure as a dam failure is
imminent there.
Otherwise, follow the advice of local officials.
* OTHER PREPAREDNESS INFORMATION:
If you are prone to flooding or in an area under a storm surge watch
or warning, be prepared for the possibility of a quick and dramatic
rise in water levels.
If a tornado warning is issued for your area, quickly move to the
safest place within your shelter. Protect your head and body.

NEXT UPDATE
-----------
The next local statement will be issued by the National Weather
Service in Greenville-Spartanburg SC around 5:30 PM EDT, or sooner if
conditions warrant.

Flash Flood Warning
National Weather Service Greenville-Spartanburg SC
747 AM EDT Fri Sep 27 2024
...FLASH FLOOD EMERGENCY FOR NORTHERN GREENVILLE AND NORTHERN
SPARTANBURG COUNTIES...
The National Weather Service in Greenville-Spartanburg has issued a
* Flash Flood Warning for...
Greenville County in upstate South Carolina...
Spartanburg County in upstate South Carolina...
* Until 345 PM EDT Friday.
* At 747 AM EDT, emergency management reported heavy rain and
flooding across the warned area. Widespread catastrophic flooding
across these counties. Numerous roadways are flooded and
impassable due to fallen trees. Water rescues are likely. Shelter
in place and do not travel unless fleeing floodwaters. Significant
flooding is ongoing in multiple locations, resulting in road
closures, first-floor inundation, and damage to some structures.
The risk of life-threatening landslide activity continues to
increase in the South Carolina mountains. Between 4 and 8 inches
of rain have fallen. The expected rainfall rate is 3 to 5 inches
in 1 hour.
This is a FLASH FLOOD EMERGENCY for Northern Greenville and
northern Spartanburg Counties. This is a PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS
SITUATION. SEEK HIGHER GROUND NOW!
HAZARD...Life threatening flash flooding. Heavy rain producing
flash flooding.
SOURCE...Emergency management reported.
IMPACT...This is a PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. SEEK
HIGHER GROUND NOW! Life threatening flash flooding of
low water crossings, small creeks and streams, urban
areas, highways, streets and underpasses. Dangerous
landslide activity. Numerous road closures and damage
to infrastructure. Inundation of homes and
businesses. Dangerous high water flows, especially
along the Tuckasegee River.
* Some locations that will experience flash flooding include...
Greenville Downtown, Spartanburg, Greenville Eastside, West
Greenville, Greer, Mauldin, Taylors, Berea, Five Forks, Welcome,
Powdersville, Boiling Springs SC, Travelers Rest, Duncan, Lyman,

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
Move to higher ground now! This is an extremely dangerous and
life-threatening situation. Do not attempt to travel unless you are
fleeing an area subject to flooding or under an evacuation order.
Heavy rain is significantly increasing the risk of landslides,
especially in areas where slides have occurred in the past. Slides
can destroy single homes and other structures and large sections of
roads. If you are in the warned area, you should not travel, except
to move away from flash flood or landslide dangers. If you are in
the vicinity of a stream near the heavy rainfall, especially on a
mountainside, or at the base of a mountain or in a cove, move
immediately to a safer location.
Turn around, don`t drown when encountering flooded roads. Most flood
deaths occur in vehicles.
Be aware of your surroundings and do not drive on flooded roads.
In hilly terrain there are hundreds of low water crossings which are
potentially dangerous in heavy rain. Do not attempt to cross flooded
roads. Find an alternate route.
