A band of heavy rain showers and embedded thunderstorms are roaring through the mountains of the Western Carolinas. The primary threat from these showers and storms will be from very heavy rainfall leading to that localized flash flooding in low lying areas. Brief, damaging wind gusts can still be a possibility as these storms continue. Tomorrow will be unsettled, much cooler, with a few showers. Easter Sunday will turn mostly sunny with a milder afternoon.
Currently at weather observation station, WHKP has received 2.5 in. of rain as of 1:25PM on Friday afternoon.
