Wasn’t there some major flash flooding in Boone, NC this summer from heavy rain storms?

It’s definitely been a wet summer. I have a creek and a pond on my property that has gotten close to crest. The biggest concern is the New River. We’re a few years past the last 100 year flood and overdue.

IF ya’ll get close to rain they are predicting some of those little villages on the east side of the Blue Ridge could be subjected to major flash flooding.

I was in Blowing Rock Boone in May. I can not imagine how bad some of those driveways and roads could get after 1-3 feet of rain. I thought my driveway was bad here in NH. I saw houses there in the Blowing Rock area that had a driveway that were treacherous on a 70 degree sunny day.
