| Brief Description | Flood Advisory | |
| Detailed Description | The National Weather Service in Greenville-Spartanburg has issued a Flood Advisory for the French Broad River in North Carolina. . At Blantyre affecting Transylvania and Henderson Counties. . Near Fletcher affecting Buncombe and Henderson Counties. .A complex storm system and associated cold front will impact the upper French Broad River watershed Saturday night through Sunday morning, resulting in periods of moderate to heavy rainfall. Storm-total accumulations of 3-5" are expected across the watershed. The resultant excessive runoff will likely cause the French Broad River from Rosman to Fletcher to approach or exceed Action/Advisory Stage, resulting in nuisance flooding of adjacent low-lying areas, including farmland, parks, greenways, boat-access areas, and golf courses. The most likely period of flooding is Sunday morning through Sunday evening, with conditions gradually improving later Sunday into Monday morning. There remains some uncertainty about exact amounts and isolated areas of Minor flooding cannot be ruled out, especially closer to Penrose, Blantyre, and Etowah. If the forecast significantly exceeds the Minor Flood Stage of 16.0 feet at Blantyre, a River Flood Warning may be issued. Stay abreast of the latest forecasts in case additional rainfall becomes likely. * WHAT. Nuisance flooding caused by excessive rainfall is expected. * WHERE. French Broad River near Fletcher. * WHEN.
