    .: Our crews are making assessments now, clearing debris where they can and will continue to do this over the next few days. We want to make sure we are responding ASAP, so we are trying to bypass as much traffic as possible.

    .: We are asking out of state travelers to avoid driving through NC. I have never see flash flooding like this in our state. It is making it difficult for us to move valuable resources to areas in need.

    .: Road conditions across nearly all of our state will deteriorate over the next few days. Almost all of NC will be subject to flooding. Flash floods this morning began closing major routes. It has been increasingly difficult to find bypass routes.

    . Cooper: All roads in the state are at risk of floods. Roads you think may be safe can be washed away in a matter of minutes. Just a few inches of water can sweep your car away. Pay close attention to flash flood warnings.

    . Cooper: Currents of water are flooding homes, covering roads and sweeping away cars. They are dangerous and destructive. Stay off the roads in most parts of NC! Don't make yourself someone who needs to be rescued.

    New Evacuation Orders are in place. Go to to see if you are in an area with a mandatory or volunteer evacuation. If you decide to leave your home, be sure to check before you leave to ensure your route is clear.
