AIRY AND PILOT MOUNTAIN... ...FLASH FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 830 AM EDT THIS MORNING FOR NORTHEASTERN SURRY COUNTY... At 410 AM EDT, severe flooding continues as several creeks and rivers remain well out of their banks due to runoff from heavy rain earlier tonight. This resulted in numerous water rescues in the Mt. Airy and Pilot Mountain areas earlier in the night. However, the Ararat River at Mt. Airy crested near 29 feet at around 3 AM, and water levels are now falling quickly. Water levels in Rutledge Creek, Seed Cane Creek, Faulkner Creek, and Big Creek are likely falling as well. Regardless, numerous roads remain flooded and impassible, including East Pine Street, Riverside Drive, Westfield Road, and Welcome Baptist Church Road. This remains a very dangerous situation, as motorists may unknowingly drive into deep flood waters, not realizing the flooding is there due to the darkness. This is a FLASH FLOOD EMERGENCY for areas surrounding the towns of Mt. Airy and Pilot Mountain. This is a PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. SEEK HIGHER GROUND NOW! HAZARD...Life threatening flash flooding. Thunderstorms producing flash flooding. SOURCE...Radar. IMPACT...This is a PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION.

This is still 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.
