That fog in the first picture from @cccti is what settles & stays in the @OnTheWatauga river valley and Valle Crucis, NC. It cleared this morning around 10:00 AM which is common this time of year with the longer nights. Low this morning of 35 & heading to the upper 60’s. #ncwx

The @OnTheWatauga is definitely out of its banks this morning but to me it looks like the river restoration project headed by @ForkBrushy did what it was supposed to do by keeping more of the river within the banks and reducing erosion in Valle Crucis, NC. @walkerlawsontv #ncwx

Just before midnight, Valle Crucis has had 2.25 inches of rain for the day with Boone over 3” for the day. Boone has reported moderate or heavy rain continuously for the last 8 hours. #ncwx The @OnTheWatauga is heading straight up ⬆️ waterdata.usgs.gov/monitorin…
10pm update: be ready to seek higher ground if in Bat Cave & Chimney Rock tonight. Heavier rain rates will train for the next few hours. Several homes and campgrounds will likely see flooding. #ncwx

There’s really a Dolly Song for every occasion 👏 but today seems like it might be the last summery day until next spring so I thought I’d let the dogs play @OnTheWatauga river before it gets too cold. high today in Valle Crucis was 78, low of 52. #ncwx #dolly

Our house is for sale. When someone looks at it, I like to go sit by the Watauga River. Indy likes to sit in it!

The @OnTheWatauga river in Valle Crucis is flowing very nicely with recent rains. Another foggy August morning. I feel like we are going to see many more foggy starts to the day with this pattern of wash, rinse and repeat.
