This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of southwest North
Carolina...east Tennessee and southwest Virginia.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

...Remnants of Hurricane Helene expected to impact the Tennessee
Valley and Southern Appalachians Today...

...A Tropical Storm Warning is in effect for Cherokee and Clay
Counties in North Carolina through early afternoon...

...High Wind Warning in effect for all of East Tennessee and
southwest Virginia through this Evening...

...A Flood Watch is in Effect for Flash Flooding Across Portions
of East Tennessee, southwest Virginia, and southwest North
Carolina...

The remnants of Hurricane Helene will bring tropical downpours
mainly this morning. Flash flooding will be possible with an
additional 2 to 4 inches expected in some places.

In addition to the rain, strong winds are forecast. The highest
winds are expected across the higher elevations of the east TN,
southwest VA, southwest NC mountains, and Cumberland Plateau.
However strong pressure gradients will exist across the region and
thus the lower elevations of the Tennessee valley will likely
experience some high winds Friday morning. With soils incredibly
saturated, trees are likely to fall during this period of high
winds.

.DAYS THREE THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Wednesday

No additional hazardous weather is expected at this time.
Flood waters will be receding and may still pose a threat before
streams retreat back within their banks.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Reports of wind damage or flooding is very appreciated.
