I just now got service back. The whole region has been totally wrecked by this storm. Every 500 year flood line was surpassed by a large margin.

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

I had friends at the District in Biltmore Village too. Water totally filled the first floor and they had to be evacuated by high water vehicles. Thousands of cars destroyed. Seeing lots of them siphoned with the batteries taken out which is good. Means someone might have been able to keep their refrigerator and generator powered for an extra day while they waited on help.

The Pardee in Hendersonville is understaffed and has been discharging patients to the local highschool and needs volunteers to help out. They're taking anyone with a pulse to stay overnight with the people in the school.

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
