An awesome gift from an awesome company. Thank you @AmTrustInsured for the gifts!
We're filled with gratitude from the @LongCreekFD and how they're keeping their community safe. To thank these first responders, the AmTrust sales team partnered with @mainstreet_ins to donate gift cards from @oldemeckbrew, an #AmTrustInsured. Thank you! #AmTrustGratitude

Please stay “Weather Aware” tomorrow as the Charlotte area is expected to get 5-7” of rainfall. We are currently under a flash flood watch through Friday evening. Remember if you see flood waters in the roadway, Turn Around, Don’t Drown.
Replying to @NCEmergency
• Portions of NC may receive heavy rainfall from the remnants of Sally Thursday through Friday (exact rainfall forecasts are uncertain at this time). Excessive rainfall will lead to areas of flash flooding with localized significant flash flooding possible.
