One section of I-40 will be closed until Sept 2025, that's not good news. Part of I-26 closed until March 2025.
The Dragon was being used to move supplies into NC as it was passable. Today 10/02 Tenn HP reported closed near mile marker 5 due to semis trying to use the Dragon and getting stuck.
My area (Toccoa) was lucky, eye passed over and not too much damage done, just a lot of water.
My heart breaks for all of those out in WNC/TN/SVA... That's a beautiful part of the country, and I have very fond memories of spending time in Asheville and deeper into the mountains. I've donated to Greg Biffle's charity setup for rescue efforts, but I wish I could do more...

If you are so moved, these are friends of mine who live in an area that has lost road access, and many houses totally destroyed. They are currently being supplied by healthy dudes hiking in supplies. Luckily they are skilled at filtering water so they don't need much of that, but the big food drop was 50 cans in 2 whitewater kayaks...
This isn't some scam donation, these people need a vehicle to access their community. Conversly, I'm happy to trailer in a UTV or SxS if anyone would donate one from between the Savannah-Raleigh area.
Videos from a friend of mine there (who used to live in Charleston) who lost everything

Damn, that's disappointing. Wonder if there is more to the story though.
