When I took some geology classes at App State we were shown large landslide features and it was hypothesized to be from tropical systems coming from the gulf. 

Word is that this has the potential to be the worst flooding event in recorded history in the area. 

It has potential to cause serious flooding and mud slides. I really hope this is an overreaction.

I'm in the mountains near Asheville NC and we are supposed to get heavy rain on top of the rain we've gotten in the last 24 hours. The storm hasn't even started here yet and there is already flooding everywhere. 

Im just north of Asheville and the creek in our front yard looks like the Amazon. Hope we don’t lose power tonight. If we get any high winds it will get ugly.

There's no way this will be worse than 1916. That was two back to back hurricanes within a week. The second one dropped upwards of 20" in a 24 hour period on already completely saturated land and swollen streams. That's the one that wiped out the town of Mortimer on Wilson Creek. Wilson Creek crested at 94 feet through the gorge. This will probably be the worst flooding in the last 20 years or so though. It ain't nothing to sneeze.

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.

      I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
