    Hi, someone from Asheville checking in. Absolutely devastating here, much like Erwin up the road.

    Biltmore village

    River arts district

    I’ve never been in a hurricane before this but it was absolutely insane. We’re so far inland, and so typically climate insulated. No one expected nearly this and it quickly overwhelmed everything we have. Just got soke cell back, I’ve heard potentially weeks for power for some and same on water.

      I hope you and yours are safe and healthy. Hopefully no fatalities in your family and friend group on the local area.

      Take care out there.

      AB tech has shelter available (near mission hospital), 88.1 has updates at 10 and 4 every day, i26 to the south is the only way in and out for civilians now. Stay safe everyone

        I have a coworker who lives in Flag Pond and can’t get home since Friday until the roads gets fixed. Must have the interstate open again to get home.
