Severe Weather Briefing – Hurricane Florence
Based on the current forecast models for #Florence, North Carolina is under a weather alert for heavy rain and strong winds from Wednesday, Sept. 12 through Sunday, Sept. 16. We are closely monitoring Hurricane Florence and the impact expected for our locations. It is expected to impact the Main Rocky Mount Campus area between Wednesday night and mid-day Thursday. As of today, NC Wesleyan Main Campus is operating under a normal schedule. Adult Studies classes held within the confines of another educational institution, please follow that location’s directions on openings and closings. The Durham and Goldsboro locations will be handled directly with those programs’ administration. A decision will be made and announced tomorrow, September 11, at noon on any closing plan for the College’s Rocky Mount Campus.
Power outages are possible, along with the likelihood of downed trees and powerlines. To prepare:
Keep your cell phone charged and limit use except when necessary. If the power goes out, computers will be down. We’ll need to contact you via phone/email. Call, text or email home to let them know you are safe.
Stock up on bottled water, snacks, ready-to-eat food and a small LED flashlight. Don’t wait until the last minute to get these items.
DO NOT go outside during high winds and heavy rains. Avoid driving if possible. Flooded roads pose a serious danger. If you encounter a flooded road, #TurnAroundDontDrown.
Keep a check on your email this week, our main NCWC social media accounts, the website and the Wes App for updates.
Tune in tomorrow, September 11, at noon on our main NCWC Facebook page for a LIVE update.

Hurricane Florence Local Statement Advisory Number 49
National Weather Service Raleigh NC AL062018
1121 AM EDT Tue Sep 11 2018
This product covers central North Carolina
**Hurricane Florence Continues to Approach the Carolinas**
NEW INFORMATION
---------------
* CHANGES TO WATCHES AND WARNINGS:
- None
* CURRENT WATCHES AND WARNINGS:
- A Hurricane Watch is in effect for Sampson and Wayne
- A Tropical Storm Watch is in effect for Cumberland, Edgecombe,
Harnett, Hoke, Johnston, Scotland, and Wilson
* STORM INFORMATION:
- About 1000 miles southeast of Raleigh NC or about 990 miles
east-southeast of Fayetteville NC
- 26.7N 65.3W
- Storm Intensity 130 mph
- Movement West-northwest or 295 degrees at 16 mph
SITUATION OVERVIEW
------------------
Dangerous Hurricane Florence is expected to approach the Carolina
coast on Thursday before drifting west and north, impacting central
North Carolina through the weekend. The main concern is for a prolonged
period of heavy rainfall which could accumulate up to 15 inches in
spots, which is likely to lead to life threatening flash, areal, and
eventually river flooding. In addition, strong sustained winds of 30 to
50 mph are expected, spreading from southeastern North Carolina toward
the northwest from Thursday afternoon through at least Friday night.
Gusts in excess of 60 mph are possible. Impacts may include damage to
trees and power lines, resulting in numerous power outages, along with
damage to weak or poorly built structures. Finally, there is a
potential for isolated to scattered tornadoes from Thursday afternoon
into at least Friday.
At this point, plans should already be in place, and preparations for
the numerous hazards should be underway. These preparations should be
completed NO LATER THAN Wednesday night, as arrival of storm
conditions is likely by Thursday morning.
POTENTIAL IMPACTS
-----------------
* FLOODING RAIN:
Prepare for dangerous rainfall flooding having possible significant
impacts across the Coastal Plain, Sandhills and eastern Piedmont.
Potential impacts include:
- Moderate rainfall flooding may prompt several evacuations and
rescues.
- Rivers and tributaries may quickly become swollen with swifter
currents and overspill their banks in a few places, especially
in usually vulnerable spots. Small streams, creeks, canals,
arroyos, and ditches overflow.
- Flood waters can enter some structures or weaken foundations.
Several places may experience expanded areas of rapid
inundation at underpasses, low-lying spots, and poor drainage
areas. Some streets and parking lots take on moving water as
storm drains and retention ponds overflow. Driving conditions
become hazardous. Some road and bridge closures.
Prepare for locally hazardous rainfall flooding having possible
limited impacts across western Piedmont.
* WIND:
Prepare for life-threatening wind having possible devastating impacts
across Coastal Plain and Sandhills.
Potential impacts in this area include:
- Many large trees snapped or uprooted along with fences and
roadway signs blown over.
- Many roads impassable from large debris, and more within urban
or heavily wooded places. Many bridges, causeways, and access
routes impassable.
- Widespread power and communications outages.
Also, prepare for life-threatening wind having possible limited to
extensive impacts across the Piedmont.
* TORNADOES:
Prepare for a tornado event having possible limited impacts across the
Coastal Plain and Sandhills.
Potential impacts include:
- The occurrence of isolated tornadoes can hinder the execution
of emergency plans during tropical events.
- A few places may experience tornado damage, along with power
and communications disruptions.
- Locations could realize roofs peeled off buildings, chimneys
toppled, mobile homes pushed off foundations or overturned,
large tree tops and branches snapped off, shallow-rooted trees
knocked over, moving vehicles blown off roads, and small boats
pulled from moorings.
Elsewhere across central North Carolina, little to no impact is
anticipated.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS
----------------------------------
* EVACUATIONS:
Traffic is expected to increase as evacuees from the coast travel
inland. Allow additional time to safely reach your destination.
* OTHER PREPAREDNESS INFORMATION:
Now is the time to check your emergency plan and emergency supplies
kit and take necessary actions to protect your family and secure your
home or business.
When making safety and preparedness decisions, do not focus on the
exact forecast track since hazards such as flooding rain, damaging
wind gusts, storm surge, and tornadoes extend well away from the
center of the storm.
If you live in a place particularly vulnerable to flooding, such as
near the ocean or a large inland lake, in a low-lying or poor
drainage area, in a valley, or near an already swollen river, plan to
move to safe shelter on higher ground.
Always heed the advice of local officials and comply with orders that
are issued. Do not needlessly jeopardize your life or the lives of
others.
Be sure to let friends and family members know of your intentions for
weathering the storm and your whereabouts. Have someone located away
from the threatened area serve as your point of contact. Share vital
contact information with others. Keep cell phones handy and charged.
Closely monitor weather.gov, NOAA Weather Radio and local news
outlets for official storm information. Listen for possible changes
to the forecast.

NEXT UPDATE

The next local statement will be issued by the National Weather
Service in Raleigh NC around 6 PM EDT, or sooner if conditions
warrant.

I know the State of Louisiana is already sending people to South Carolina to stage. Also, The Cajun Navy have at least 2 air boats and 30 high water jeeps over there to help out. I'm pretty sure our electrical and water companies are sending people there. And I'm sure Cox is also sending extra people there.

This is great!
Atlanta Motor Speedway is opening its camping facilities to evacuees seeking refuge from Hurricane Florence.
The campgrounds, which are equipped to handle thousands of campers during the track's annual NASCAR weekend, will again be made available free of charge for dry RV and tent campers in the Legends Campground.
After an overwhelming response in 2017 when the Speedway hosted more than 100 campers during Hurricane Irma, a limited number of camping spaces with water, power and sewer have been made available for a nominal fee of $20 per night in the Premier Campground.
Located adjacent to the campgrounds, AMS will also open The Rinnai Shower Station camper bath house, allowing evacuees free access to hot showers and restroom facilities during their stay.
Those interested in RV or tent camping in the free Legends campground at Atlanta Motor Speedway should enter the facility at Entrance "E" off GA Highway 19/41. The Legends Campground is on the right. From I-75 and GA Highway 20, campers should see signs to AMS and follow Lower Woolsey road to Entrance "H" and the Speedway Credential Building. Make a right into Speedway property and then another immediate right onto Richard Petty Boulevard. Follow Richard Petty Boulevard and turn left into Entrance "G". The Legends campground will be on the right.
