There’s currently no way on or out for a lot of people right now

Edit: Live updates here this is being broadcast on FM to the whole region. The only way a lot of people can get info

    Thanks, I’m fortunate to not be hard hit, but entire towns are gone around me. I haven’t been able to get more than a couple miles outside my neighborhood, but some people have made it to Charlotte via Georgia. All the major highways are out except one going into SC.

      It’s wild. Watching some of these videos coming out is heartbreaking. I’m in Florida and it skirted just by me. We still lost power for a day, trees down all over the place. Y’all getting any sort of guidance regarding this weekend? At the very least, it’s looking like another load of water is heading your way.

        There’s a lot of stuff coming in. I’m right at the end of 26 that’s open to SC. Hendersonville and Flat Rock got hit, but nowhere near as bad as Asheville. I’ve been fortunate to have power and water, but gas is still hard to come by and I don’t want to put any in my car when it could go to someone’s generator.

        Helicopters and emergency vehicles everywhere, hundreds of linemen working all night trying to get power back.
