I am so fortunate to call these three wonderful colleagues my good friends.
I feel lucky we get to work together each day and to do it at Spectrum News 1.

@JustinQberry, who is from the Black Mountain area, took these pictures near Swannanoa. #SpectrumNews1 #ncwx
These drone photos I took a few years ago show what the area used to look like downstream from this reservoir that supplies water to Asheville. It’s a much different scene than what it looks like now in the @chefjoseandres video below in this thread.
Here’s some of what we learned from Buncombe County’s 10 news conference on #Helene recovery:
This is so sad to see. I grew up not far from there and was driving along that very stretch of road just a few weeks ago.
It seems main Reason Asheville has not water is because the main water line that brings 2/3 of the water from the Laurel Ridge, Black Mountain reservoir is badly broken in different parts. On top of that the pumping stations are damage or without electricity. That why @wckitchen we are bringing 5 water trucks for distribution…contributing to efforts to have everyone with access to water..#ChefsForNorthCarolina

POWER. Just now above Ingles on Hwy 9 in Black Mountain! Note, this is the main road through town, side roads still have nothing.
Gas pumps are working, but it’s a trickle.

From WH Pool Report:
Biden said he will visit North Carolina on Wednesday to "survey the damage...withouyt taking resources and burning resources on the ground."
He will land in Raleigh for a meeting with the Emergency Operations Center and then will do an aerial tour. #Ncpol @SpecNews1CLT

DO NOT TRAVEL: @NCDOT is still saying all roads in Western N.C. are considered closed.
"Travel in Western NC should be for emergencies only."
#wncwx @SpecNews1CLT
REMINDER: There are still hundreds of #Helene-related road issues and travel in Western NC should be for emergencies only.
⚠️ I-40 remains impassable in multiple locations. I-26 is closed at the Tennessee state line.
