* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues.
* WHERE...A portion of western North Carolina, including the
following counties, Avery and Caldwell.
* WHEN...Until 915 PM EDT.
* IMPACTS...Minor flooding in low-lying and poor drainage areas is
expected along with rapid rises and high flows on smaller streams.
This includes Wilson Creek from the headwaters in Avery County
downstream to the Edgemont community, as well as Anthony Creek and
the headwaters of Johns River.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

thunderstorms. Minor flooding is ongoing or expected to begin
shortly in the advisory area. Between 1.5 and 3 inches of
rain have fallen across much of the Advisory area since
around 500 PM.
- Heavier rainfall has moved back over the Advisory area, and
additional rainfall amounts of up to one inch are expected
through 800 PM. This is not expected to be enough to cause
flash flooding, but high flow will continue along Wilson
Creek from the headwaters downstream to the Edgemont
community through the evening. An upgrade to a Flash Flood
Warning is still possible, and people camping along Wilson
Creek near the Avery and Caldwell County line should be
prepared to take immediate action if a Warning is issued.

Globe, Upton and Edgemont.

you are relative to streams, rivers, or creeks which can become
killers in heavy rains. Campers and hikers should avoid streams or
creeks.
