Well how is everybody in the path of the hurricane?

Bill Manofsky has been posting pics of the area around Asheville. I imagine eastern GA, NC, and SC will be flooding today as the water makes its way downhill. Even my relatives in Speedway had trees down in their neighborhood.

A best friend whose Dad ran D/SR in Cen Div in the ‘70s has a young son there — who is fine.

Really, just posting to say Nice Job, Rick — and hope all here that are connected to Asheville are okay.

We went through there last Fall after the Runoffs, shopped at Ingle’s, and seeing the devastation is… devastating.

This time we ended up very lucky. Some localized flooding and some wind, but nothing like the people to the North of us. We just had the two-year anniversary of Hurricane Ian and we're thankful it wasn't another one. Although the barrier islands are covered in sand once again. Sending good vibes to the people who were directly impacted by Helene.

Reporting from Sanibel FL. Helene brought us 18" of water in the house/garage underneath the main living area which is elevated. The winds and rain were nominal. Much better than Ian which gave us 8 feet of water in the house/garage.

Much sadness for the southern states who got much more than they had figured on.

Big mess and devastation in eastern NC and SC. I40 is likely out for a very long time, so travel across the NC/ Tenn mountains is going to be drastically different. I'm hoping they make hwy 25 automobile only. If they let the truck traffic on there it will kill travel for both truck and auto. Local truck deliveries only.
