Nowcast as of 2:15 am EST on November 11, 2009

Now

Widespread rain with heavier showers associated with the remnants of Tropical Storm Ida will continue to move north across the mountains of northeast Georgia and the western Carolinas through the predawn hours. Rain will fall at the rate of one quarter to one half inch per hour in some areas...mainly from west of Clayton Georgia to north of Asheville. This will cause stream levels to continue to rise across the area this morning. River levels will also rise to very elevated stages. The rain will continue to be moderate to heavy for much of the time until later in the morning. This will increase the possibility of landslides.
