Residents in Avery, Eastern Buncombe, and McDowell counties should be prepared for potential flooding, especially in low-lying and flood-prone areas. The heavy rainfall may lead to hazardous driving conditions, road closures, and property damage. Those living near rivers, streams, or areas with poor drainage should remain vigilant as water levels may rise quickly. The advisory warns of the potential for the situation to escalate to a Flash Flood Warning if rainfall intensifies.
