Yes, the storm is off the front pages now, but its effects will last for months if not years.

I heard today that there are 1500 roads flooded in NC. That’s an unbelievable total and the rivers, most of them, in the Southeastern NC have not even reached flood stage yet.

It’s the water. The winds were not that bad mostly. But the water is the killer.

I hope people will not forget this tragedy....the prayers are definitely still needed.

Thanks for these threads, by the way, NN.

I actually heard 1600 roads are flooded (on local news this evening.)

Some rivers have crested (depending on location), some are yet to crest, as you say. For example(s):

and

(note however that these projected crests are not records)

vs.

All in all, though, it’s some rough stuff...
