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.

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
