    Nolichucky Dam Update by #Tennessee Valley Authority - Water levels reached 8 feet over the record elevation.

    The Nolichucky River has crested, and the dam remains intact. Water is currently receding by approximately one foot per hour. Dam Safety teams are in the process of assessing the condition of the dam to determine next steps.

  2. No power here in our corner of Virginia since 1:30 Friday afternoon. In the high winds of the tropical storm Helene, a tree fell against the power lines somewhere in our grid. Not expected to have electric until 11pm Sunday, tho they anticipate the majority will have it sooner than that. Let’s hope.

    Waiting for dad to wake up so I can help him down the stairs without the benefit of the chair lift. We will plan out what we want from the fridge so I can open the door with lightning speed and grab quickly. Got a gallon of milk in there and yogurt, the main things to eat before it goes bad.

    I can hear a couple others who have generators running. We didn’t opt for that as we don’t lose power for long. We are far from the coast and in the mountains so storms usually wind down to rain and wind by the time it reaches us. Still, our roof shingles are rated for 65mph winds and I know we’ve had gusts like that. They estimate we got over 2 inches of rain here yesterday. No damage here. #tropicalstormhelene

  5. #Helene #TropicalStormHelene has an extremely well defined eye, for a storm in an early stage.

    The incipient vortex is not as well defined, for now, and just over 400miles, and the first fringe bands are already reaching as far as Naples, Florida.

  6. Potential Tropical Cyclone #Nine has formed to a tropical storm and is now called #Helene.

    There is risk of life-threatening storm surge from Tropical Storm #Helene for the coast of the Florida Panhandle and the Florida west coast, where a Storm Surge Watch is in effect.
