There's been 6 inches of rainfall in the past week with another 6-10 predicted for the Asheville area this weekend.

Mountain stream and river valleys don't do well in high rainfall events and steep watersheds provide little notice when they decide to flash flood.

A river flood ruined a nursery business on the Biltmore estate decades ago. People died in that flood too.
