...FLASH FLOOD EMERGENCY FOR NORTHERN GREENVILLE AND NORTHERN 
SPARTANBURG COUNTIES...

The National Weather Service in Greenville-Spartanburg has issued a

* Flash Flood Warning for...
  Greenville County in upstate South Carolina...
  Spartanburg County in upstate South Carolina...

* Until 345 PM EDT Friday.

* At 747 AM EDT, emergency management reported heavy rain and 
  flooding across the warned area. Widespread catastrophic flooding 
  across these counties.  Numerous roadways are flooded and 
  impassable due to fallen trees. Water rescues are likely. Shelter 
  in place and do not travel unless fleeing floodwaters. Significant 
  flooding is ongoing in multiple locations, resulting in road 
  closures, first-floor inundation, and damage to some structures.  
  The risk of life-threatening landslide activity continues to 
  increase in the South Carolina mountains. Between 4 and 8 inches 
  of rain have fallen. The expected rainfall rate is 3 to 5 inches 
  in 1 hour.

  This is a FLASH FLOOD EMERGENCY for Northern Greenville and 
  northern Spartanburg Counties. This is a PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS 
  SITUATION. SEEK HIGHER GROUND NOW!

  HAZARD...Life threatening flash flooding. Heavy rain producing
           flash flooding.

  SOURCE...Emergency management reported.

  IMPACT...This is a PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. SEEK
           HIGHER GROUND NOW! Life threatening flash flooding of
           low water crossings, small creeks and streams, urban
           areas, highways, streets and underpasses.  Dangerous
           landslide activity.  Numerous road closures and damage
           to infrastructure.  Inundation of homes and
           businesses.  Dangerous high water flows, especially
           along the Tuckasegee River.

* Some locations that will experience flash flooding include...
  Greenville Downtown, Spartanburg, Greenville Eastside, West 
  Greenville, Greer, Mauldin, Taylors, Berea, Five Forks, Welcome, 
  Powdersville, Boiling Springs SC, Travelers Rest, Duncan, Lyman, 
  Pacolet, Landrum, Cowpens, Wellford and Slater-Marietta.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Move to higher ground now! This is an extremely dangerous and 
life-threatening situation. Do not attempt to travel unless you are 
fleeing an area subject to flooding or under an evacuation order.

Heavy rain is significantly increasing the risk of landslides, 
especially in areas where slides have occurred in the past. Slides 
can destroy single homes and other structures and large sections of 
roads. If you are in the warned area, you should not travel, except 
to move away from flash flood or landslide dangers. If you are in 
the vicinity of a stream near the heavy rainfall, especially on a 
mountainside, or at the base of a mountain or in a cove, move 
immediately to a safer location.

Turn around, don't drown when encountering flooded roads. Most flood 
deaths occur in vehicles.

Be aware of your surroundings and do not drive on flooded roads.

In hilly terrain there are hundreds of low water crossings which are 
potentially dangerous in heavy rain. Do not attempt to cross flooded 
roads. Find an alternate route.
