Warnings and Notices

	Flash Flood Watch
Statement as of 9:23 PM EST on November 11, 2009 ... Flash Flood Watch remains in effect until 7 am EST Thursday... The Flash Flood Watch continues for * portions of North Carolina and upstate South Carolina... including the following areas... in North Carolina... Alexander... Burke mountains... Caldwell mountains... Cabarrus... Catawba... Cleveland... Davie... eastern McDowell... greater Burke... greater Caldwell... greater Rutherford... Gaston... Iredell... Lincoln... McDowell Mountains... Mecklenburg... Rutherford mountains... Rowan and Union NC. In upstate South Carolina... Cherokee... Chester and York. * Until 7 am EST Thursday * areas of light to moderate rain... with a few embedded heavier showers... will persist through the night over the foothills and western Piedmont of North Carolina... as well as the eastern Piedmont of South Carolina. Another one half to one inch of rain is possible overnight and Thursday morning. This will bring storm total accumulations into the 3 to 5 inch range. * The expected additional rainfall may cause flooding of smaller creeks and streams. Some streams may also leave their banks as a result of runoff from earlier heavy rain. A Flood Warning remains in effect for the Broad River at Blacksburg and Boiling Springs. Precautionary/preparedness actions... A Flash Flood Watch means that conditions may develop that lead to flash flooding. Flash flooding is a very dangerous situation. You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action should flash flood warnings be issued. 07

	Wind Advisory
Statement as of 9:24 PM EST on November 11, 2009 ... Wind Advisory remains in effect until 7 am EST Thursday... A Wind Advisory remains in effect until 7 am EST Thursday. Sustained winds of 15 to 25 mph... with gusts as high as 40 mph... will continue through tonight across the Piedmont and much of the foothills of the western Carolinas and northeast Georgia. These gusty winds... combined with saturated soil from the recent heavy rain... will likely cause a number of trees to become uprooted across the advisory area. Precautionary/preparedness actions... This Wind Advisory has been issued because gusty winds are expected to cause quite a few trees to fall due to saturated soil. This may result in scattered power outages. 07

	Record Report
Statement as of 4:33 PM EST on November 11, 2009 ... Record daily maximum rainfall set at Greenville-Spartanburg SC... A record rainfall of 2.10 inches fell at the Greenville-Spartanburg Airport today. This breaks the old record of 1.78 set in 1919. With additional rainfall likely... the total for the day will increase. Another statement will be issued after midnight with the updated total.
