    There was flooding in Belhaven today at several locations downtown. Anywhere between a couple of inches to a couple of feet. It is now receding but there is still water in these locations. Downtown Belhaven is in extremely low elevation. Flooding happens often – they are used to it. No injuries were reported. Very limited power outages.

    Some locations experiencing flooding:

    O’Neal’s Drugstore
    O’Neal’s Snack Bar
    Silluvan’s Flowers and Gifts
    Belhaven Police Department
    Senior Center

    I live in Timberlake. A lot of the bridges by my house are flooded. There are a few housing developments off of Guess Rd by my area that are flooded also. Hopefully the water will recede soon.

    Lucama NC...we have had a lot of rain since last night; but no damage.. I live in a home surrounded by trees and only have one old limb down. Thank you God for sending NC the rain it needed without a lot of damage.

    Just surveyed my yard. I have lots of branches and some tops of trees down. While looking at an old snag that finally came down, I noticed some movement in a crack. Looking back at me was an opossum that made its home in the hollow of the trunk. This brings to mind, be mindful of wildlife that has been brought out by the storm, especially snakes. Possums and raccoons may look cute, but they can inflict some serious wounds. Don't stick your hand in a hole without looking first !!!!!

    We are in Walnut Creek, North Carolina. We still have some rain some wind. The sky is lighter than 1 hour ago. We are headed to the NCSU football game.

    I just went to Raleigh from Clayton, there are some flooded roads and are some minor wrecks, it seems that people are not driving slower than normal. They seem to be driving too fast and hitting the puddles on the highway and hydroplaning. I counted 9 minor wrecks. Raining has subsided here; people just need to be more careful. Rock Quarry Road Flea Market has some high water, and Rock Quarry Rd/Jones Sausage. There are some traffic lights out, some at Blue Ridge Rd/Hillsboro Rd, and Rock Quarry Rd/Jones Sausage. It’s just really messy out there.

    I live in the southwestern part of Hoke County. My rain gauge only measures up to 6 inches, and it overflowed at some point, so I have to guess that we got at least 6 or 7 inches of rain. We have a great deal of flooding on my farm and the road I live on (Norton Road) is somewhat under water as well.
