As the remnants of Tropic Storm Fay continue to bring heavy rain to the Upstate of South Carolina and the mountains of North Carolina, the entire area is under a combination of tornado watches, flood warnings, and flash flood watches.
A 'watch' means that conditions are right for a weather event. A 'warning' means that the weather event is in progress.
Rainfall totals for the region are expected to be from 3-5 inches on Wednesday, in addition to the 2-3 inches that have already been recorded for Tuesday.
The Greenville-Spartanburg area of Upstate South Carolina is under a tornado watch until 2 AM and a flash flood watch throughout the morning hours, as 3-5 more inches of rainfall is expected.
The Asheville-Hendersonville area of the mountains of North Carolina is under a flash flood watch for Wednesday. Several counties in the region are under a flood warning as rivers and streams have already overflowed their banks, resulting in damage to property.
Here is the latest information from Weather Underground. Updates are provided regularly.
