A recent post from the North Carolina Department of Transportation has issued a warning that all roads in Western NC should be considered closed due to the aftermath of Tropical Storm Helene. The storm has wreaked havoc across North Carolina, resulting in the closure of 290 roads throughout the state.
North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper has emphasized the severity of the situation, stating that the state's department of transportation is taking proactive measures to shut down additional roadways. The primary reasons for these closures include severe flooding, landslides, and washed-out roads, all of which pose significant risks to public safety.
