The flooding has left McCaysville residents without access to clean water, posing health and sanitation risks. The water storage tanks are critically low, and leaks caused by the flooding are exacerbating the situation. Washed-out roads and damaged infrastructure have disrupted daily life and hindered emergency response efforts. The prolonged lack of power at the water treatment plant further complicates the recovery process. Residents are advised to conserve water and prepare for potential delays in restoring normal services.
